Person:Samuel Abrams (1)

1870 Census Hempstead, Queens Co., New York Abrams, Samuel 26 M W Bayman -0- 150. NY Abrams, Sarah A. 20 F W Keeping House NY Abrams, Catharinia 1 F W NY

In 1880 Samuel is enumerated as 'Nathaniel' instead of Samuel. In both the 1880 and the 1900 census this family is living next household to Augustus Seaman; further confirmation that this Nathaniel was really Samuel. Perhaps Nathaniel was a middle name or an enumerator error. 1880 U.S. Census Queens, Queens Co., New York Abrams, Nathaniel W M 32 married Farm laborer NY NY NY Abrams, Sarah W F 27 Wife married Washerwoman NY NY NY Abrams, Catherine A.

   For some reason? Samuel is enumerated as 'Nathaniel'; but wife and children confirm this is the correct record for this family.
