Research Notes (Conflicts/Spelling/Followup)

CONFLICT

Birth Location: This database uses Louisiana. His marriage record with Mamie Alexander gives a location of Texas. [marriage-guillemet-alexander-registry-1921]

SPELLING

Surname: This database uses Guillemet. The 1910 US Census uses the spelling Giullment. [census-us-1910-ps-la-orleans-118-18a]

Given Name: This database uses Robert R. His grave marker uses Robert P. [marker-robert-guillemet-1976]

FOLLOWUP

Race Discrepencies

The 1900 US Census identifies Louis and Etna Guillemet, and their children Etna, Raul, Lucille, René, Robert, and Monie[Maurice] as being "white." The 1910 US Census identifies all of them, as well as younger children Rolland, Irma, and Richard as "mulatto." Ignoring the misspelling of their names in the 1910 US Census, the individuals common to the 1900 and 1910 US Census have the same given name (the family surname in 1910 is not exact, but is a close match, likely a spelling error by the enumerator), the same birth dates (within the census defined ranges), and the same birth locations. [census-us-1900-ps-la-orleans-48-20b, census-us-1910-ps-la-orleans-118-18a]

The marriage registry for Robert and Mamie Alexander's wedding identifies them as white. [marriage-guillemet-alexander-registry-1921]
