Help with the 1830 Census of Twiggs County Georgia

I would never suggest that a Census record be changed, but over the years transcription of records and even "mistakes" or "misunderstandings" by the original enumerator can cause records to be "misleading" at best.  With my familiarity with early Twiggs County, I have reviewed the names in the 1830 Census of Twiggs County Georgia and attempted to indicate the possible "intended" spelling of the person listed and added additional information I know to be correct.  This is intended as an "aid" to researchers and in no way is intended to reflect on those who painstakingly transcribed the original records.  I have only included those names that I feel may be "incorrect."  One particular "error" included one of my husband's g-g-uncles who is shown as Lewis H. Clark.  His name was Senus and of course it is easy to see how an old S could be translated as an L.  If you have additions or disagree with my "calls," please let me know.
