Enumerator:        S. Bevins, Sheriff
Enumeration Date:  5 August 1852

Transcribers note:  There was an indication that the sheriff
            had submitted this summary to the state offices
            at least three times and was insisting that a
            confirming receipt be returned.  Perhaps the
            state was asking for the full data sheets
            rather than the summary each time.  The full
            data sheets were apparently never submitted and
            were either destroyed or are languishing in
            some far corner of the Madison County
            Courthouse.
