The census family of James Tidwell appears to be interrupted by the census family of Jefferson Hall. After the Hall family, the ennumerator begins again with younger Tidwell children, and numbers them the same as the James Tidwell family above. I believe that there is a line drawn from the repeated numbers below, up to the same numbers above, in an effort to clarify that the second part of the household had been separated from the first. While this at first appears quite confusing, closer examination leaves me confident that I have recorded the family here as it was intended to be understood in the original ennumeration.
