      On Schedule 2, Page 3, Line 18 states:

      Haley, Lottie (see Lottie Haley)
      Haley, Thelma, Female, Sister in law, Single, Born March 1899, Age 12, Birthplace Ontario**
      **I think (hw) that this could be read as Haley, Evelyn, Dau, Single, Born Mar 1911, 1 mos, Birthplace Ont - Grace & Henry did have a dau. Evelyn born 1911. April , thus ???? certainly Haley should be Smoke
      ** Smoke, Velma, should be Thelma, as Henry & Grace had a dau Thelma born June 1903
