The enumerator drew a line through several entries and many misspellings are evident. Ringling had its beginning in 1914 with the founder being the famous showman, John Ringling of Ringling Brothers Circus. The original site came from lands owned by Alex Hammond and P.B.Turner. Ringling is located one and one-half miles from the east line of Jefferson County. The oil industry furnished employment to residents. ___________________________________________________________________________ This work follows all guidelines of the USGW Census Project, http://www.usgwcensus.org/. ___________________________________________________________________________ Key to Census Columns: LN Line # S Attended School STREET Street R Can read HN House # W Can write DW Dwelling # BIRTHPLACE Person's Place of Birth FN Family # LANGUAGE Person's Mother tongue LAST NAME Last Name FATHER Father's Place of Birth FIRST NAME First Name LANGUAGE Father's Mother tongue RELATION Relationship to head of household MOTHER Mother's Place of Birth O Home Owned or rented LANGUAGE Mother's Mother tongue M Free/Mortgaged E Speaks English?
