Transcribers Notes:
I believe several given names are contractions used in place of
writing the full name. For instance No. 13 Christ with n above the line for
Christian, No. 18 and 19 Michl for Michael, No. 20 Patk for Patrick, No. 25
there is a small raised letter following Marg, No. 30 there is a small raised
letter, probably an r following Cath, probably Catherine.
Occupation on Lines 21 through 28 are abbreviations for servant and laborer.
However, laborer is written in full on Line 1 and servant is written in full
on line 31. There is no entry in Occupation for Lines 2 through 11.
