| | From the 1900 U.S. Census, we learn that at some point between May, 1882 and December 1884, Henry W. Bishop moved his family from Cherokee (Spartanburg County), South Carolina to Franklin County, Georgia. This is consistent with his daughter, Eugenia “Genie” Bishop, marrying [[roland_pickney_randall|Roland Pickney Randall]] during 1894. |
| | |
| | <note>Most of the original 1890 U.S. Federal Census records were destroyed or badly damaged by a fire in the Commerce Department in 1921. Records enumerating only 6,160 individuals—less than one percent of the schedules—survived. Those for the Randal family were destroyed.</note> |

| Note: While Thomas was listed as an "Adams" in the 1870 Census, he was listed as a "Clark" in the 1880 Census. He was actually [[jesse_thomas_jackson_clarke|Jesse Thomas Jackson Clark]]. While the 1870 Census did not list "relationship" (e.g., son, daughter), this was included in the 1880 Census... and Thomas was identified as a "Servant" (rather than an "adopted" child - as this was closer to the reality). | |
| | Note 1: The census indicates that Henry W. Bishop and Mary Bishop had been married for 27 years; and that Mary was the mother of 6 children... all living (accounting for the 3 children identified in the 1880 U.S. Census). |
| | Note 2: Clem J. Bishop, appearing immediately after the family of Henry W. Bishop, appears to be his son, identified in the 1880 U.S. Census as "John C. Bishop". |
