This is the most messed up census I found. Even with all the errors in the census data and the transcription of the data, I am
convinced this IS the Gabriel Schmalz family. It looks like when the census taker came around somebody just made their best
guess at birth month and year for each person in the family but were off by a year or so for most and off by about 9 years for
Gabriel. The names also have errors indicating that whoever was giving the information to the census taker didn't even have a
good knowledge of the family membrs names. The errors are:
- Gobrie Smatty: I can't make out the first name but the last name looks like "Smaltz" with the l and the t crossed thus the name
Smatty.
- "Caroline, Daughter" should be "Conrad, Son".
- Felix A. should be Felix C.
- Adolp should be Adolph
- Mary E. should be Mary S.
It's also interesting that Mary also shows up in the 1900 Fort Smith Census indicating she was not even living at Gabriel's
house in 1900. I also suspect Conrad had already spread his wings and flew the coop by 1900 which would explain why
someone who didn't know the family might have been confused about "Caroline/Conrad".
