Line 21: there is a 69 year old female Welch living with family 579.
What is her given name?

Thank you

It's Doisa. Not very common, but real.

Is it Ok to respond to my own query?
Since I got two conflicting responses (Doisa and Dosia), I thought I
better try again.
I now believe it is Doria and, when I search on Doria Welch on
ancestry.com, it does point to the census page I originally referenced.
Not 100% conclusive but it is getting me a bit further.

Thanks to Bob and Ann for responding.

Alex
