The following transcription was taken from the original handwritten records. Due to difficulty in reading old style and poor handwriting, please refer to the original for the best accuracy.
This election district was particularly difficult to read! There are likely many errors in spelling due to several reasons: 1) original is very light and hard to make out up and down strokes in particular; 2) enumerator had poor spelling for the less common first names, let alone last names; 3) enumerator had very poor / difficult to read handwriting, in particular the numbers "6" and "0" were nearly indestinquishable, as were the letters "a" and "o"; 4) to complicate it further the enumerator wrote some first letters of names with lower case and others with uppercase!; 5) many of the Italian names were obviously spelled phonetically, along with the other problems, this just made it even more difficult to read!
I have done the best I can to decifer this election district, but I can't say I'm all too pleased with the results (too many that still have "?" next to their names). Please rent the microfilm through LDS for best accuracy!
I have transcribed as closely as I could to the enumerators spelling, not what I think might be the correct spelling!
