1900 Census data, Pierre, Hughes County, South Dakota.
Re: Household of Peter & Rowena (SAYLES) Voorus, & daughter Effie Voorus
=======================================================

PETER B. VOORUS was misspelled as 'Voohurs' in the original 1900 Census for Pierre, Hughes County, South Dakota. The same spelling error is shown in the online census index.
In addition, on the original census and in the online census index, the Voorus family was incorrectly 'lumped together' with the household of William Nelson, which is listed directly 'above' the Voorus household on the 1900 original census.
CLARIFICATION:
The family of Peter B. Voorus is a separate, independent household.
The correct census information for the Voorus household is attached below.
