    For William, the birth year and age are smudged out and written over (see original). We know that he was born in 1857 and was therefore 43.]

    [dougcouch Note:
    For Andrew, I disagree with the proposal that the census data given in 1900 was birth year 1884 or age 17. Basis: Examining the census taker's handwriting for 4's and 7's throughout the page does not support an 1884 date. As to the age data given, while one could interpret and read a 17 instead of a 13, consider that both of these ages are not in agreement with either an 1884 or 1887 birth year. Looking closely, it appears that the census taker first wrote 13, since 1900-1887=13, and later wrote over the scrawly 13 with a 2, making his age 12 instead. 12 years of age in June 1900 agrees with the 1887 data.]
