NOTES 03-2006
I always get a good laugh when I find that the census taker did somethi
ng funny...take for instance this family in 1920. On January 5th, 1920, c
ensus taker Mabel Stambaugh recorded the household of S. Arthur Locke on P
age 90...the physical address was 4106Yakima Avenue, dwelling 80, fami
ly 87. In this household are S. Arthur Lockand his wife Lana M., with st
epson Ray Ramsdell, daughter-in-law Pauline Locke, and grandson Vern
on E. Locke.
One day and six pages later, census taker Mabel Stambaugh inserts the re
st of the family--Burlin G. Locke, Arlie A. Locke, and Paul L. Locke, a
ll sons, with no parents listed, at 4106 Yakima Avenue, dwelling 80, fami
ly 87. It just makes one smile...
