Randy,

I don't know of any books that contain the entire censuses for those
years. It would be a huge book! (-: Perhaps you already know this, but
you can find transcriptions from portions of some of these censuses
published on the web.

BTW, the first federal censuses that were taken for Neosho county and
Labette County were 1860 and 1870, respectively. (Neosho County was
established in 1855 and Labette County was formed from Neosho County in
1867). There was a territorial census of the state taken in 1855.

In addition to the federal censuses, Kansas conducted state censuses in
the years ending with 5. (I wish all states would have done this!)

You can find transcriptions of the entire Neosho County 1865 state census
and Centerville and Chetopa townships from the Neosho County 1870 federal
census in the USGenWeb Archives at this URL:

I could not find any on-line census transcriptions for Labette County.

Happy hunting!
