▪Comments by DMH, 6 April, 2017
▪The Color column is blank on entire sheet. Totals at the bottom show 23 white males, 17 white females, for a total of 40 individuals enumerated. Implication is that all persons enumerated on this sheet were white.
▪The only entry in the birthplace column is in the very first line in which "N. Carolina" is written. Nothing can be implied by this as the enumerator or transcriber used "do" to signify the ditto mark in other columns.
