1870 Windham Township Census
Enumerated June 18 thru June 30, 1870 by R. B. Howell, Ass't. Marshall
Transcribed for Tri Counties by Carlton Wolfe 2004
Formatted & Published by Joyce M. Tice 2004 |
H# = Household - F# = Family Note ! - Caucasian unless otherwise
noted
Post Offices in Windham Township in 1870 included Windham, Windham
Summit, Windham Center and West Windham. However, the enumerator
recorded South Warren PO in Warren Township as PO for ALL residents
of Windham Township. This is apparently an error on his part, and
one which we have no way to correct. In 1870 all rural persons drove
to the Post Office, sometimes only weekly, to pick up their mail.
Rural Delivery did not occur until1903.
