STATE: Iowa ENUMERATOR: ? COUNTY: Lucas ENUMERATOR DATE: Completed 7 July 1856 TOWNSHIP: Otter Creek MEDIA SOURCE: Ancestry.com images TOWN: ** Extended 1856 Census Transcription ** The entire 1856 census has been transcribed, including agricultural statistics. Transcriber's Notes: No line numbers appear on the original census but have been assigned to indicate the enumeration order. Odd numbered pages contain the ag statistics. On this set of images, the even numbered pages contain agricultural statistics, when it is typical that they appear on odd numbered pages. The agriculture stats do not always line up with head of household, although most do correspond to some member of the family. Pages are bound out of order, then page numbers were stamped. The transcriber has put Family/Dwelling numbers in order and assigned page numbers. Stamped page numbers are now out of order. The name of the township was written as "Otter Crick" by the census-taker. Only head of household has birthplace entered on census for this county; no ag stats on page 916. ======================================================================================================================================================================================================================================================================================================================================================================================== CENSUS-YEAR: 1856 STATE: Iowa COUNTY: Lucas DIVISION: Otter Creek Twp ENUMERATOR: [unknown] ENUM DATE: Completed 7 July 1856 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ACRES OF ACRES OF ACRES TONS BUSHELS WHEAT OATS CORN POTATOES HOGS CATTLE LBS.
