CENSUS REPORTS
1910 - 1930
UPDATED MARCH 17, 2009
There are a huge number of Patmans, Patmons, Pitmans and Pittmanns in George, both White and Black families. When I first did these censuses all I had were the Soundex Cards and many of the Putman entries turn out to be Patmans now that I can actually access the actual pages. Floyd County was a real mess till I could eliminate virtually all the entries I thought were Putmans but were Patmans that I could trace back and forward. Thanks Ancestry.com
