COMPLETE: 1855 New York State Census
« on: Monday 08 April 19 13:36 BST (UK) »
The attached portion of the Census shows the place of origin or state marked in red.
Can anyone read the place?
There parents were both born in England and had been in the USA for a short period of time.
I understand that the children were born in the USA.

All help appreciated.

It appears as a birthplace in several places on that page. I just tracked one person onto the 1865 NY state census, and its definitely Otsego.

Thanks for all your input.
I think it must be "Otsego" since I know that they were born in New York State.
