This enumerator reversed the ordering of names entirely; that is, "Stroup A Abel" means "Abel A. STROUP," not "A. Abel STROUP."  This enumerator also made hardly any tick marks for anyone on anything, so I wouldn't take the lack of them to mean anything.

Parts of this record are faded and difficult to read.  "C Mill" is Cotton Mill.
