Joyce's Search Tip - January 2008 -
Do You Know that you can search just the Census Records on the site by using the three county level Census  buttons in the Partitioned search engine at the bottom of the Current What's New Page

You can further limit your search by choosing the find all words option and entering a year or township name along with your surname. Remember that alternate spellings of surnames WILL affect your search results.

Note from Joyce: The 1870 Census includes information about the Post Office at which mail was delivered. People had to pick up their mail at the PO because this was prior to Rural Free Delivery system which was implemented in 1903. See my article You Gotta Know the Territiory to understand the differences between physical location and PO Address. In the case of Burlington Borough and Burlington Township, all residents of both political units used the one Post Office in Burlington Borough.
