Extended Description:
Included in the 1850, 1860, 1870, and 1880 censuses were questions regarding
those who died in the twelve months prior to the enumeration. They list
persons who died between 1 June and 31 May of the year prior to the census.
Even though these lists of deaths are widely believed to underreport actual
numbers of deceased, this is still a valuable source of information. In many
states where vital records were not kept it provides a nation-wide death
register for five years between 1849 and 1880. The schedule lists the
deceased name, sex, age, color, widowed or not, place of birth, month of
death, occupation, and cause of death. In 1870 the parents' birthplace was
added.
