Someone has written over every entry on the page in a darker pen. I could just make out that the enumerator had originally written "Stroope Joshua," then it was over-written with "Stroop John." Joshua was born in VA, not OH. Ellen is his wife, not his daughter, and she should be 68, not 44.

7. 1890 Census: the 1890 Census Population Schedules were destroyed.
