This record was difficult to read, not only because of poor handwriting and a blurred image, but because there was considerable "marking over" done later.  For George, his age looked like "342," as if someone had written 42 over 32, or vice versa.  Nettie is 37, but she was born in 1863, not 1853.  For Pearl, the enumerator had put "Daughter" and "F," then someone had written over it "Son," and "M."  If Pearl was female, she shouldn't have been given an occupation, but was her occupation a mis-alignment from Fred's row, when the enumerator was copying his field notes to the census forms?  The children's ages were initially written as 16, 12, 9, and 8, respectively; then someone wrote over those ages with 15, 11, 8, and 7, respectively.  If Loloa? was 8 years old, she was born in 1891, not 1881; similarly, if Don was 7 years old, he was born in 1892, not 1882.  Cordon C. CUPP and Thomas J. CUPP are George's brothers and should have been enumerated as such.  Also, Cordon CUPP was born in 1867, not 1857; his age was first written 32, then was overwritten with 33; and it appears his status was first written "S," then overwritten with something, possibly "Wd."

"... Prof George W. Cupp was superintendent of the Eagleville [Wood Co., OH] school from 1879 to 1896.  He moved to Mansfield [Richland Co., OH] where he was editor of the Mansfield News for a number of years and later engaged in the real estate business..."

Cupp, proprietor of the Palace hotel at the corner of North Mulberry and West Sixth streets.  New flooring is being laid in the kitchen, dining room and office.  The walls are ceilings of the rooms are being papered and the property is to be overhauled in general.

Other items still to be extracted.
