** Extended 1856 Census Transcription**
  The entire 1856 census has been transcribed, including farm statistics.  Caveat: The
  farm statistics page of the 1856 State of Iowa census is often mis-matched with the
  standard census page.  This township seems to be matched correctly.

Transcriber's Notes:
  No line numbers appear on the original census. Line numbers have been assigned to
  indicate the enumeration order.
