 The 1860 Federal Mortality Schedules asked the following questions.... Name, age sex, color, free or slave, condition (married, single or widowed), place of birth, month of death, occupation, disease or illness and number of days, ill for all persons who died the year ending June 1st 1860.

These were broken up in the schedules by townships but I have attempted to put them in alphabetical order. I have omitted the free column as all are free. I have also omitted color and number of days ill. There were a handful of names I just could not make out. If I could take a guess I did.

These mortality schedules are a valuable resource. It is estimated that these deaths were under reported by as much as 20%. However, counties didn't keep death records in Ohio until much later so it is one of the few sources available.

The microfilm is very hard to read. You are encouraged to see the original a copy of which may be found at the Ohio State Library 274 E. 1st Ave, Columbus, Oh 43201.
