Steinseltz Census 1880

Here's George Aberth's Household from the 1880 Steinseltz Census:

The inhabitants:

#. Family Name. First Name. Relation to the
Head of Household.
Columns 5 & 6 for temporarily
present or absent persons.
City Region
1. Aberth George Head of Household Farmer
2. Aberth Salomé his Wife
3. Schau Dorothé his Mother-in-law
4. Kieffer Salomé under Care Steinselz
5. Aberth George Martin his Son

This one's not as interesting as the 1885 Census. There's no street name listed, and some minor spelling differences.

And Grandma Salomé's mom is listed with her maiden name here – Schau – as expected.

But look: that Salomé Kieffer is already there, »in Pflege« aka "in/under Care". And next to her name, in the City column, it says Steinselz, but it's crossed out. So maybe she's from out of town.


Here's Michael Aberth's household:

1. Aberth Michel Head of Household Farmer
2. Treger Julianna his Wife
3. Aberth Magdalena his Daughter

No change here, except that there's also no street name given, they spell Michel slightly differently, and they're using Julianna Treger's maiden name too.
