These 1855 New York State Census are being compiled by
volunteers for the Genealogical Group
Housed in the Roswell P. Flower Memorial Library.
229 Washington St. Watertown, NY 13601
Copyright, 2003-2005
©: by
The Genealogical Group
Volunteers that have helped in this project so far are Azilda Baker, Francis Jackson, Johan Jackson, Diana Horning, Terry Mandigo, Albert McGuinnis, Rod Abare, Carolyn Perkins. Margaret Narrow, Linnea (have to get her last name) Shirley Farone, Laurie Williams, Larry Corbett, Sue Gillen, Sarah Anne Cutler, Carolyn Ybarra, Lynette Stilley, Jack Jowett, Moira Jowett, Phyllis Plant, Jeff Monroe, Florence Secor, Rick Bierman, Marilyn Craig and Alice Corbett.
Note 1. the pages of the census are
not numbered. I numbered them as they are easier to keep tract of.
Note 2. On Watertown - the value of real-estate is
not entered for all families. Hart Massey seemed to fill in good so I am
assuming he didn't repeat if the value was the same as the dwelling above, so I
filled them in with that in mind.
Note 3. We started this project using the
microfilms in the Library, these microfilms were really bad so we made
arrangements to purchase new ones which are much better - so that accounts for
the delay in this project - once I stop something just can't get seem to get
going again. Thanks to Linnea who volunteered to do Brownville we have decided
to put what we have on line and update the additions and corrections.
Note 4. I am putting 4 pages of the census on a web
page as we have a limited number of pages we can have on our free search engine.
The pages might load slow.
Note 5. The Enumerator's
name will be entered on the Town pages index for each District instead of each
page of the census. The reason for this is the search engine will pick up that
name each time it is entered

For some reason the enumerator put the dwelling, type and value
all grouped together on each page.
There isn't any way to correct this as I don't know which dwellings had two
families.
Enumerator Orville Forward
I am putting pages 19 to end on the site not worked or checked. If you don't like it this way let me know as I am thinking of doing the rest the same way.

This part of the Cape Vincent census has been
hard to do - not only with the copy of the census not being good, the
writing and the names - but with the enumerator not filling in the entries. He
did not have Jefferson Co on anything so we have assumed all the blank pob
spaces are Jefferson Co.
Be warned.

The enumerator of this town started with dwelling and family numbers
as he went on first dropped the dwelling
numbers then dropped the family numbers.
Without at least the family numbers there is no way I can be sure that the pages
are in sequence or what families go together.
Also he did not fill in all of the POB so I am assuming they are Jefferson
County and filling the blank spaces with Jeff Co.
One must take into consideration that he did not enter all he was suppose
to - so some that are filled with Jeff Co might not be the place of birth.
