Hardin, IA 1900 Federal Census ftp://ftp.us-census.org/pub/usgenweb/census/ia/hardin/1900 (File 5 of 5 for Alden Township) This Census was transcribed by Patti German and proofread by Baylis Beard for the USGenWeb Census Project http://www.us-census.org/ Copyright (c) 2001 by Patti German ========================================================================= TRANSCRIBER'S COMMENT: A common problem throughout these pages is the fact that code was handwritten over the first names on the first and sometimes second family members within a household. Sometimes part of the first name or a middle initial could not be deciphered. If a field is unreadable, denoted with U. The 'un' is sometimes entered in birth place or birth date field by enumerator - assume this means unknown. ========================================================================= USGENWEB NOTICE: These electronic pages may NOT be reproduced in any format for profit or presentation by any other organization or persons.
