Note: The census taker left large sections of the census blank where place of birth and the place from which the person came to Kansas would have been listed.

NOTES FROM PAGE 5:
1)-- The census taker in the city of Tribune lists a "Vanoy" family. In the 1895 census index provided by the Kansas State Historical Society this family name appears as Vannoy.

2)-- "I.T." probably stands for Indian Territory (Oklahoma)

3)-- The surname here appears as both Supprise and Suprise. In the 1895 transcription by the Kansas State Historical Society it appears as Suprise.
