Attached is a text file of the 1900 Putnam County census index I just finished, to be added to the Putnam County section of the archives. Meredith Index to 1900 census of Putnam County, Indiana copyright 2001 by Meredith Thompson, Scotlass94@aol.com This is a head of household index that also includes: persons whose surnames are different than the head of household, all unmarried children age 18 and older, and people you'd expect to find living in their own household (e.g. parents living in their married children's households, or a child living with their grandparents). For birthplaces within the U.S., I used the two-letter postal abbreviation. All other birthplaces, including those from other countries,are copied here exactly as they appear on the census. ** indicates a letter/letters that were hard to read ?? indicates where a word was completely illegible unk. indicates unknown [blank] indicates the column was not filled out This is only one person's interpretation of the handwriting--always refer to the actual census microfilm. NOTE: The first section of the Greencastle enumeration was especially hard to read.
