1870 U. S. Census

Weakley County, Tennessee

Microfilm Roll #1570 National Archives
Transcribed  by MaryCarol

District  7  Page 123

Dresden P. O. -  W. J. Reavis, Asst. Marshall -  July 29th


Transcribing this Census was not easy - there are many opportunities for error, from what people told the Census Taker ( who was an Assistant Marshall in 1870), the way the Census Taker wrote a name, which of the 3 handwritten copies we are really looking at, down to my transcribing.  Even when I knew the spelling to be different, I kept what I saw for the historical integrity of the Census. On this Web version of the Census, if you see an error, please let me know.  If  I look at the microfilm and say, "yes, it really says that", I will change it.  If it really says what I wrote, I will put your corrected version in [brackets]. Check with each District page to see any odd ways the Census Taker spelled certain names; such as Patterson was spelled Pattison, Campbell was spelled Cambell, Martha was Mothy.  MaryCarol
