Notes on the 1900 Census
  • The above census data was found in a Fall 1976 search by Dave Jordan. 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 Dave directly.
  • There was at least one other family in this household at 2629 Union. They were named Battersly. They were not boarders but a separate household. Most likely on a different floor or part of the building than the Vanderkloots.
  • Matthijs and Trijntje were married on November 15, 1851.
  • The months and years of birth and ages match other data for all cases except that Mathias was born July 21, 1863 not July 1866.
  • The number of children and living children should have been 12/10 not 10/8.
  • According to Dutch records, the year of immigration for Matthijs and Trijntje was March 1886 with four children. The four children are thought to be the four younger children: Matthijs, Jannetje, Cornelius and John. Cornelius's 1900 Census has an immigration date of 1886.
