1870 Wysox Township Census
Enumerated July 25 thru August 4, 1870 by George Nichols, Ass't. Marshall
Transcribed for Tri Counties by Carlton Wolfe 2004
Formatted & Published by Joyce M. Tice 2004 |
H# = Household - F# = Family Note 1 - Caucasian unless otherwise
noted
Post Offices in Wysox Township in 1870 included Wysox and
Meyersburg. However, the enumerator recorded Wysox PO for ALL
residents of Wysox Township. This may well be 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.
