* In some cases, the enumerator entered "American", and
occasionally noted that "this was the best he could do". But,
after the enumeration, someone crossed out "American", and entered
(usually) "English" or (rarely) "Irish". Because of the
genealogical interest, this list uses the "crossed out" Origin.
