	Port Vue is 17km SE of the fork of the Ohio in Pittsburg: both are in Allegheny Co. I presume you've been searching the US census via: https://www.familysearch.org/s/collection/list#page=1®ion=NORTH_AMERICA Thus, you can access the 1900 image (NB the 1890 census was 99.9% destroyed by fire). You can also access the 1920/30 census via: http://www.archive.org/details/1920_census http://www.archive.org/details/1930_census Note, the last 3 digits of the LDS FHL film # match those of the NARA reel #. So guess a page, look it up, pick a name on that image, look it up on the LDS site and adjust your guess of the page/image # (the bit after the /n in the URL). Due to inadequate source info on the LDS record, 1910 is a bit geeky, so here's Ginny's and your 1910 images: http://www.archive.org/stream/13thcensus1910po1296unit#page/n1448/mode/1up http://www.archive.org/stream/13thcensus1910po1296unit#page/n1434/mode/1up
