Can someone look at this image on Ancestry and tell me if it is at all
legible?

1870  >  WISCONSIN
Series: M593  Roll: 1731  Page: 396

What I am interested in is I believe lines three through seven are Jeremiah
C(K)arnes age 50 b. Pennsylvania and his family.

Mostly I am trying to determine if C. Henry Royal b. abt 1855 is his son or
not. It would tie my Karnes kin up in a neat package as I am already
assuming Samuel b. abt 1849 is his son as he is on the previous page and
they are right next to each other in 1900 and the cememtery.

Complicating matters is I think I have them in Indiana in 1860, but then he
is only 35 and his wife is Eliza. But there is a Samuel of the right age and
a George H who is 7.

I have them as Karnes and definitely my people in 1880, 1900 etc. I had
thought the wife in 1850 didn't work, but I see that she is still Eliza in
1880 and miraculously she is 20 years older than she was in 1860 and still
born in IN which makes me think the above image isn't my Jeremiah.

Thanks for any help I can get.
