The 1855 census for Erin was collected by James Hollenbeck from June
4 thru June 29, 1855. I was able to copy the original records from
microfilm to transcribe from. I looked in the 1850 & 1860 census for
every family to compare to the 1855 census because of the bad handwriting.
James Hollenbeck spelled the names just the way they sounded. For instance
he spelled Hiram-Hyrum, Elizabeth-Elithabeth. His 4 & 7’s looked a
lot alike. He spelled Orange Co as Oren throughout the census. I didn’t
copy the names as he spelled them. He didn’t fill in a lot of the blanks.
He only put down how many years the head of the household was in the county
not the rest of the family. He only filled in child for the first child
in column 9 for relationship. He left column 4 empty for households 83-87
& 90-96.
If I found names in the other census records that matched up to the
1855, I put parenthesis around them. If I couldn’t find the family and
had to guess at a name, I put a question mark after them.
You can find the copies from the microfilm in the back of the notebook
that I used. The notebook is located at the Steele Memorial Library in
Elmira, NY. If you can correct any names feel free to correct them. The
microfilm can be found at the LDS church in Horseheads or soon at the Steele
Memorial Library.
