Cortland County 1870 Census Main Page

Thanks to the efforts of JoEllen Langwell, the 1870 census entries for Lapeer are complete online and Benny Klock is working on Preble to get it on-line. Listed below are links for the pages currently on-line. A column translation is listed after the links. The census itself is full of errors. Surnames are sometimes listed as first names, for example with Lapeer family 16 - Johnson Royal is really Royal Johnson. Also, obviously male names are described as female, and vice-versa. No attempt has been made to correct these errors, but they will be noted at the bottom of the census as we find them/are notified of them.
