This is the seventh Voter Registration entry (1876, 1880, 1882, 1886, 1892, 1898, 1907) for Elijah McKnew in San Francisco. In the 1907 registration , he was age 70, worked as an oyster dealer, and resided at "4131 19th." All identifying characteristics are no longer listed.
In this record, his name is not exactly right - it should be Elijah Pickrell McKnew, but the middle name changed almost every registration.
