*Note for Anton Rauch – Under Place of Birth it says “Ger  Cassel Elector Hesse” with the last three words crossed out.  This census taker wrote in a lot of information on each person and then crossed much of it out.  Possibly this could be a clue as to where in Germany.  If interested you should view the microfilm yourself to be sure.
