1910 Census
Palm

My grandfather Samuel Palm's family lived in Allentown in Lehigh County, PA. My mother was not born yet. Her favorite aunt was part of the Palm household in 1910. Goldie Rohrbach (age 16) was Florence Palm's sister. Sam (age 27) and Florence (age 26) had been married for eight years. They had three children ages 7, 5, and 1. One interesting observation in this census form is the name of their oldest son. He is listed as Henry W; not as William Henry. As you look at the columns you can see their relationship to the head of the household, that they were all white and two were married and the rest were single. Another column shows whether they were male or female.
