This page in the Union Sunday School record book probably dates to 1869.
The surname name looks like "Heterman" or "Hetirnan" or something, but I can't find anything resembling that in the 1870 or 1860 census. As for the first name, I'm not sure if it's "Fritz" or "Trity," the latter of which sounds like a nickname for — what?
How am I supposed to index when people won't write legibly?
(On the other hand, it's nice to see little six-year-old Calvin Shearer going to Sunday School.)

Sorry, I could'nt figure it out either
I want to guess Huitinen on the last name. It's a Finnish last name. I can't make any guesses on the first.
Well, that's a new one! I never thought about whether any Finns lived in Hobart in the 1860s/70s. That name doesn't show up in the census, but you get points for creativity. :)
