1830 Prairie Creek, Vigo Co., IN Census
1830 Prairie Creek, Vigo Co., IN Census
MY NOTES:
As far as I can tell, there are no township markings anywhere on this census. Therefore,
I chose the names to include in the Prairie Creek census from knowledge of the families who
resided in Prairie Creek, as well as studying the township histories. In 1836 and 1841,
parts of Prairie Creek were given over to Prairieton and Linton, respectively. Therefore,
some of the people who resided in Prairie Creek in 1830 would reside in other townships
in later years. I have done my best to include the correct families. If you feel there
has been an error, please e-mail me. You can also view the entire Vigo Co., IN census at
Vigo Co., INGenWeb and decide for yourself.
