1850 Thornapple Twp., Barry Co., MI

The 1850 Federal census was taken in Thornapple Aug 23-24 and Sept. 2-3 by Henry Edgcomb.  There are 2 sets of page numbers added later, one in pencil beginning 185, and one stamped in ink beginning 94.  Both are listed here.  

The capital letters "I" and "J" are written identically, so I've transcribed all middle initials as "J".  Data supplied below is dwelling number, head of household's surname, family members' given name, age-birthplace.  Strays in the household are listed on a separate line.  "*" after a name indicates person married within the year.  

This is intended to be an index only, and it has not been proof-read by anyone else.  Please check the original for additional household information. -- Lynn Kenney, April 2002.
