Surface rock, the magnesium limestone, the timber is chiefly oak, the black variety predominantly the soil of the prairies is a dark mal? Of the timer land is more compact and of a clayish nature. This district embraces the geographic center of the north western lead mines and had yielded an enormous amount of the staple article. Lancaster: There was no unusual disease here within the last year except scarletina or scarlet fever and measles which prevailed to considerable extent. Patch Grove/Wyalusing/Cassville: It will be seen by the above that Scarlet Fever has been prevalent in this Dist. proving fatal in many instances amongst children, or instituting other diseases. As regards the soil the central portions of the Dist. Being high rolling Prairie has - as in common with other prairies a black loamy soil, the surrounding portion being broken - here and there.

Notes: The mortality schedule was "supposed" to list those who died between June 1, 1859 and May 31 1860, while the population schedule was to list those actually living in the residence on June 1 1860, no matter what day the enumerator actually took the information. I understand that in some cases the enumerator may have been careless asking the question, or the informant didn't understand it, and there may be occasions when an individual may be found on both the mortality schedule and the population schedule. If the mortality schedule says someone died in July, it should mean July 1859, although it could have been July 1860. The cause of death includes diseases that are now known by other names. An example is "Gravel" which is now referred to as "Kidney Stones." For help in deciphering these disease names, there are numerous genealogy web sites that can be accessed at Cyndi's List - Medical and Medicine page: http://www.cyndislist.com/medical.htm While most of the microfilm was legible, some pages were extremely faded. As with any old handwritten records, handwriting can be very problematic. When questionable names were encountered, I utilized other sources, such as the census Population Schedule indexes for clues. If nothing could be located, I included a question mark (?) next to the data. When looking for a particular name, the researcher should try several spelling options. Potential problems exist with certain letters in the script such as S-L, H-K, M-N-W, p-f, n-m-r-u, o-a, etc. As with census records, the first and last names were spelled as the recorder thought they should be or how they sounded to him or her. An example would be Stevens and Stephens. In the majority of cases, I have recorded the names as spelled in the original records. I shall leave the interpretation of the proper spelling to reader rather than taking potentially incorrect liberties myself. These transcripts should never be used to substitute for the original records. No matter how carefully done, errors are always possible. If the record looks questionable, you should request a copy of the original schedule.
