bullet  General Notes:

The 1880 Federal Census for Smithfield, Isle of Wight Co., Virginia, District 31, page 287A, dated June 26, 1880 records Henry S. Cofield (1) living with his parents Emmett W. (33) and
Mary L. (29) Cofield and siblings Virginius (10), Japy J. (6), and Lurtie G. (4).

The 1900 Federal Census for Holy Neck, Nansemond, Virginia, District 26, page 119A, dated June 27, 1900 records Henry S. Cofield (Nov 1878 - VA/VA/VA) boarding in the home of Lemond and Olivia Coston. Henry is a Lumberman.

See his wife for 1910 and 1920 census facts.

The WWI Draft Registration Card taken on Sept 12, 1918 for Henry Slaughter Cofield records his date of birth as Sept 22, 1886 and his age as 41 years. Obviously either the year of birth or age is wrong and since other census records indicate his birth in the late 1870s. Henry indicates his nearest relative is Mrs. Sarah E. Cofield of Suffolk, VA. He is employed by E. L. Dupont of Hopewell, VA as a Motor Oper. He is tall with medium build and has blue eyes and brown hair.

The 1920 Federal Census for Bland, Prince George Co., Virginia, District 102, page 50B, dated January 21, 1920 records Henry S. Cofield (42 - VA/VA/VA) boarding in the home of Maude Jones (34). Henry is employed as a Guard at the Dupont Company.
