I would like assistance reading the names on this census record. This is from the New Mexico Territorial Census of 1885, Lincoln County, New Mexico.

The father in this family is Joseph Canute Purcella, PID LWJ4-1KR. I am most particularly interested in deciphering the name of the first son in the list. His occupation is shown as Farmer. There is a difference of opinion on some of the records and sources I have read regarding the names of two of the sons. Any help is greatly appreciated.Joseph Purcella, New Mexico Territorial Census 1885

    Hi there, it's great to see you here!

     

    I saw your question when you first posted it and have tried to give it some thought, but I'm not sure I'd be of much help. I see "Anna G." as the name of the first son.

     

    That being said, the Purcellas gave two of their sons the first name "Andrew" , so they probably used nicknames to differentiate the two boys at home.
