Notes for: Antje (Annie) Van Der Waal

This must be the Annie Van Der Waal listed as a 23 years old in the 1865 Iowa State Census of Black Oak, Mahaska Co., Iowa. She is listed as "idiotic" meaning back then that she probably had Downs Syndrome. Yes, this is accurate since she is also listed as "idiotic" in the 1870 Census and she is ten years old in that one.
