for the Color or Race information in the first entry on the second page. Is there a place to find out what the S stands for?

Thank you in advance for any help.

    It tells us in the Field help to either get the race from the drop down list or to type what we see if it is not in the list.

    Field help, bullet point 2: "If the color or race is not found in the drop-down list, type what you see."

    So for this if we see an S we would just type S in that field.

    We can speculate what S stands for and probably be right but we can let the researcher do that. :)
