Title: | Houston County (Minn) Census Schedules. | |
Dates: | 1870-1875. | |
Language: | Materials in English. | |
Abstract: | Census schedules (incomplete) formerly held by the Houston County District Court. They consist of population schedules for 1870, 1871, and 1875; and nonpopulation schedules (mortality, agriculture, products of industry, and social statistics) for 1870. The population censuses for 1870 and 1871 may overlap (i.e. the same households were counted each year) but they are not duplicative. Records do not indicate the reason for the two censuses. | |
Quantity: | 0.75 cubic feet (2 partial boxes). | |
