CENSUS RECORDS
1900 United States Federal Census
Name: Charles M Beaross [Charles M Beavers]
Note: I thought the indexer just couldn't read the name, but when I looked at the original record, it did at first look like "Beaross" but if you looked closely, the "r" was a "v". Sure wish the census takers had taken a handwriting course for legibility.
