    'David Epp 51; his wife Judith 29; first son David 20; first daughter Anna [diana] 10; second daughter Helena 6; third daughter Catharina 5; fourth daughter Sara 2 ½; fifth daughter Judith 5 weeks; a domestic maid Cattarina Penner 18.'

    Tim Janzen, the transcriber, notes: 'Researchers should note that "diana" is universally substituted for "Anna" in this census. As with the 1795 Chortitza Colony census published by B. H. Unruh, stepchildren are designated as such only part of the time and their actual surnames are given only occasionally.'
