State Census: 1856: Berlin Twp., Clinton County, Iowa Contributed for use in USGenWeb Archives by Annette Lucas ClintonRoots@aol.com This was transcribed from microfilm #1021294 from the Clinton Public Library. I only transcribed questions 1 through 20 and added comments. The rest of the questions were all regarding livestock, crops, etc. and I felt this info was of little genealogical value. Information transcribed for the following columns: 1 Number of dwellings houses 2 Number of families 3 Names of Persons 4 Age 5 Sex 6 Color 7 Married 8 Widowed 9 Years resident in the State 10 In what State, or Foreign Country, born 11 Profession, trade or occupation 12 Native voters 13 Naturalized voters 14 Aliens 15 Militia 16 Deaf and Dumb 17 Blind 18 Insane, Idiotic (I combined these two) 19 Owners of land 20 Remarks 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 1 1 Jacob Correll 41 M X 1 PA Farmer X X X Catharine Correll 42 F X Abram Correll 15 M Daniel Correll 14 M Samuel Correll 13 M Levi Correll 11 M Maria Correll 9 F Amanda Correll 7 F Catharine Correll 5 F David Correll 3 M 2 2 Stephen M.
