** 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.
