Joyce's Search Tip - January 2008 -

Do You Know that you can search just the Census Records on the site by using the three county level Census buttons in the Partitioned search engine at the bottom of the Current What's New Page?

You can further limit your search by choosing the find all words option and entering a year or township name along with your surname. Remember that alternate spellings of surnames WILL affect your search results.

Note from Don: Hi Joyce - Hope all is well. I just logged on the 1870 census of my home town of Sylvania. Thought it might be well to let you know that the picture captioned "Sylvania Presbyterian Church" also shows the home of Will and Carrie Mosher (of Soper and Mosher Undertakers) in the foreground and the IOOF Hall in the background.Best regards, Don
Note from Joyce: The 1870 Census includes information about the Post Office at which mail was delivered. People had to pick up their mail at the PO because this was prior to Rural Free Delivery system which was implemented in 1903. See my article You Gotta Know the Territiory to understand the differences between physical location and PO Address.
Note From Carlton: 1. Mosher, Mosier, and Mosieur are all same sounding surnames listed in this census.
2. All enumerations are white caucasians except for the Smith family 144-142 who are all black.
