Transcriber's Notes:
* Through research, it appears that a “leading s” is used here. “Over 100 years ago the "s" was often written like a backward "f." This strange symbol for "s" was used very commonly in instances where there was a "double s." The unusual s first, called the "leading s." Then the regular s.”
**A Daguerotypist was a photographer
This census taker’s “a” often looks like a “u.”
