[Editor: I extracted the above families from the 1880 Pennsylvania Soundex, using the Doutt soundex code, D-300. This groups all people with similar sounding names together, and is a sort of an index. The 1880 Soundex is limited, as it only lists families with school-aged children, I believe. But it is a great aid to the genealogist. My opinion of who the families are, is in italics. If I don't identify them, then I do not know.]

Doutts in the
1900 Pennsylvania Census
Extracted from Soundex D-300

I extracted these entries from the 1900 Soundex. The Soundex is an index of sorts from the census, grouping names that sound alike by a code; in this case, D-300. Hence, the entries for Doutt, Dout, Dautt, etc., are all together, and alphabetized by the given name of the head of household. I have copied the names as reported in the Soundex, even though I know some of them are in error. Some of the Dout names are our relatives; some of the Doutt names are not. But I reported them all as found. I hope that this index helps you find your relatives.
