Les, you'd had to have been there, and I know you are older than I
am, but even you aren't that old, so ...<br>
<br>
Dad was born in January 1920 (official birth cert, unofficial birth
cert, newspaper clipping, mother's personal statement, etc), but he
was NOT enumerated as an infant in the 1920 census -- the omission
would appear to be one of those fairly typical aberrations in the
census record. How could one miss a six month old infant as being a
person? That happened.<br>
<br>
I have another cousin counted twice as an infant on the same day
about 200 miles away -- probably skipped Dad wile trying to make up
for that error forty years later [actually, my guess is over eager
grandparents]. And you ask when sex changes happened? Every time
they missed the mark with their pen -- time to look at the original
record and make your own transcription, Les.<br>
<br>
Merry Christmas from the census takers!<br>
