Have you looked from him on the 1880 US census which is also on Family Search?

[zoenel]

No I apolgize for that ,i just put his name the search section and just the one cenus apppearded 1910.but im hoopeless at understanding of that site qute embaressing, apolgies.

So you have only seen a transcription of the census entry, not the actual census page?

[zoenel]

yes just a transcription of the cucus entry

[zoenel]

Can any other members help me trace if this is my missing family please? many thanks from zoe

I've never used Ancestry at the library - surely you can view the census image there?

[zoenel]

well i was hoping the experts in here could check if its the right spelling or even rightsurname for me becise im not good at reading the manuscripts or cencus records.ive only came on here because i need genuine help checking if harry a hairyes is my family or not.please help

[Merry]

Sorry, I don't have US Ancestry so can't look.

Couldn't you look at the library and get someone else there to look over your shoulder at the image? it's much better (and more satisfying) to look yourself with someone's help than to just take our word for anything!!

Their surname is clearly Haines on the 1920 census, so that vertical line that makes it look like a "y" on the 1910 census is just a mark on the page, not part of the name.

[Merry]

In which case this is probably him in 1880 (Family Search):

Harry Haines
United States Census, 1880
birth: 1876 New Jersey, United States
residence: 1880 Southampton, Burlington, New Jersey
parents: Alexander Haines, Rebecca A. Haines

and not to do with your tree.
