Harriet Adams..9(?)..IL..Male (?)

(Living with parents.)

NOTE - It appears to me that the enumerator meant to write "19" but only the numeral "9" appears thereby giving an incorrect age of 9 instead of 19. Also, this census record and the 1860 also indicated an incorrect gender of MALE instead of FEMALE.
