Kent County – Mortality Schedules for Michigan, 1850
United States Census Office, 7th Census
|
SCHEDULE 3.—Persons who Died during the Year ending 1st June, 1850, in the County of Kent, State of Michigan, enumerated by G. C. Nelson and W. B. Smith, Ass't Marshals. Source: FHC US/CAN Film No. 1578858 / National Archives Microfilm Publication No. T1163 Total Names: 91 Transcriber: JKG [Transcriber's note: G. C. Nelson enumerated deaths for the city of Grand Rapids and the townships of Ada, Alpine, Cannon, Cascade, Courtland, Grand Rapids, Gaines, Paris, Plainfield, Sparta, Walker and Wyoming. W. B. Smith enumerated deaths for the townships of Bowne, Grattan, Lowell, Oakfield and Vergennes. W. B. Smith grouped Grattan and Oakfield together on one page and Vergennes, Lowell and Bowne together on another page, while G. C. Nelson created individual pages for each locality within his territory. W. B. Smith seems to have made notations beside the names of decedents regarding their location within the grouped townships, and it has been assumed by the transcriber that unlabelled names belonged to the remaining township, e.g. if one name is given to Oakfield, all the others must belong to Grattan.] |
