INDEX TO 1850 CENSUS OF BURLINGTON, RACINE COUNTY, WISCONSIN

(includes both village and rural areas)

Census as of June 1, 1850, enumerated by Nelson H. Palmer
from October 8 through October 19, 1850.

Index prepared by Don Vande Sand for the
Burlington Historical Society, May 2007
 

    This index includes all names shown in the 1850 census of Burlington, and references to the page and dwelling number where the person will be found.  The page numbers run from 150 to 169, with each of the numbered pages followed by a page without a number.  For ease of reference, an "A" has been added to each numbered page, and a "B" to the page immediately following.  The dwelling numbers refer to the houses as numbered in the order of visitation, and range from 1 to 302.

    When possible, alternate or more well-known spellings of some surnames are included, with cross-references to the spellings used by the census taker.  For example, Cunyham and Cunningham, Colwey and Koldeway, etc.

    More than one page is shown for some families, whose members' first names were split between two pages.
 

                Note:  The actual census records are not on this site.  If you have a Burlington Public library card, the records can be accessed through the Library's website.  Once on that site, click on Links and then on HeritageQuest, enter your library card number, and then search or browse the census.

(This page contains a listing by dwelling number.  An alphabetical listing, with both common and alternate spellings, is available here.
(Note: Some interpretations of the handwritten records may be wrong.)
