NOTES: Japanese & Chinese List shows: July 27, 1874, Chinaman. No lot number given, but "Chinaman" is mentioned.
IOOF Register of Burials: Chinaman, age 25 years, male, "colored".
[One of the first Chinese to be recorded in the Register. He was given the "colored" lable because he was not white as most of the others in the listing were. The word "yellow" was applied much later on birth and death certificates. The newspapers used "celestials" more often.]
