Census enumerations were sometimes reviewed and corrected after the enumerator had submitted their clean copy. This 1900 census enumeration contains a corrected age–the “2” in “29” does not look like other “2”s on the same page. Apparently in this case the census taker didn’t take the census date and the month of birth into account as there are numerous corrections on his enumerations.
