**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. Unfortunately, the enumerator put an "X" for all house numbers. We believe that Theodore was born in January 1879; thus he should have been 40 years old on January 1, 1920. In this Census and the 1920 Census he claims that he was born in Minnesota. In the Minnesota 1885 Census, his mother stated he was born in Bohemia. For the 1900 Census Theodore was shown as being born in Bohemia.

**Notes on the 1930 Census**
The above census data was found in an April 2003 search by Dave Jordan. Column heading wording is similar to but not exact heading wording. Further information on column heading wording can be found on 1930 census sheets. An attempt has been made to reproduce all data exactly as it is on the original record. Both Dwelling Number and Family Number are numbers used by the census enumerator in order of visitation. If wish to explore any of this data further, please contact Dave directly.	John Filipek lived at 253 Olmsted and Theodore Sokolik at 249 Olmsted in Riverside. They were first cousins.
