1870 Columbia Township Census Tri-Counties Genealogy & History Sites Home Pages About This Site & How to Use It Warning & Disclaimer Tri-County Township Index Columbia Township Page No Commercial Use Contact Joyce Transcribed for Tri Counties by Carlton Wolfe Formatted by Joyce M. Tice Enumerated July 29, 1870 by V. M. Wilson, Ass't Marshall

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.
Note From Carlton: 1.  Mosher, Mosier, and Mosieur are all same sounding surnames listed in this census.
2.  All enumerations are white caucasians except for the Smith family 144-142 who are all black.
