**Notes on the 1910 Census**
The above census data was found in a October 2000 search by Terry Nelson. The record was located through the use of the Soundex/Miracode system. An attempt has been made to reproduce all data exactly as it is on the original record; some wording changes have been made for clarity and further information on the meaning of column headings is on the census sheet. Both Dwelling Number and Family Number are artificial numbers used by the census enumerator. If wish to explore any of this data further, please contact Terry directly.	John Sokolik was born February 4, 1876; thus the age of 34 above agrees. Based on this census data, it appears that John and Katherine were married between April 1904 and April 1905. It also appears that Katherine was born between April 1878 and April 1879. It also appears that Florence was born between April 1906 and April 1907. The year of immigration for John matches the May 1879 arrival date for the Sokoliks.

**Notes on the 1920 Census**
The above census data was found in a October 2000 search by Terry Nelson. The record was located through the use of the Soundex system. An attempt has been made to reproduce all data exactly as it is on the original record; some wording changes have been made for clarity and further information on the meaning of column headings is on the census sheet. Both Dwelling Number and Family Number are artificial numbers used by the census enumerator. If wish to explore any of this data further, please contact Terry directly. John Sokolik was born February 4, 1876.; thus the age of 43 above agrees.	Based on the 1920 Census data, Katherine appears to have been born between late January 1879 and early January 1880. Matching this with the 1910 data suggests she was born between April 1879 and December 1879. Based on the 1910 Census data, it appears that John and Katherine were married between late April 1904 and early April 1905. Florence appears to have been born between January 1906 and January 1907. Matching this with the 1910 data suggests she was born between April 1906 and December 1906. Since Frank was not present in the 1910 Census, it appears he was born between April and December 1910. Unlike the 1910 Census, the year of immigration of 1882 for John does not match the May 1879 arrival date for the Sokoliks.
