Footnotes:
1. Indexed as "John Sier." Page 295 was digitzed in two pieces (image 1 and 2 of 2), so while John is on line 108 on the actual census page, he is on line 52 on the second page image.

Search Notes:
2. The John "Siers" indexed on the Broderbund CD as being in Albany Co., NY (Albany, 1st Ward), is John "Spiers."
