Unfortunately the microfilm quality for this census is quite poor, and the information on many pages can be very difficult to read.
Please keep in mind that indexes, whether manuscript, printed, or digital, are nowhere near perfect. Because names are easily misread by people unfamiliar with certain localities, indexes can be filled with incorrect names.
