1880 Census Fairfield Township, Highland County, Ohio ftp://ftp.us-census.org/pub/usgenweb/census/oh/highland/1880/ TRANSCRIBER'S NOTES: Microfilm# T9-1032 Most of the pages of this township have had extensive corrections. There are areas where the original entry has been partially removed (erased). In these cases, I have made no attempt to determine the original content. In other instances the original entry has been written over. When possible, I have used the darker or larger entry. When neither could be determined, an entry has been made in the REMARKS field. Most of the DWELLING and FAMILY numbers have been modified. On the few pages that were not changed, the original numbers duplicate numbers used on the pages with changes. I have recorded the original number when there was no correction and the second number when the original number was lined through or written over. Beginning on Stamped Page #293A through # 296D - all of the original DW#s and FM#s have either been written over or lined through and new numbers entered above. Beginning on Stamped Page # 299A through # 305B - all of the original DW#s and FM#s have been lined through and new numbers entered above.

I have used the corrected number in each case. Beginning on Stamped PG# 311A to the end of the Highland County on PG# 320C the HANDWRITTEN PAGE #s are lined through and new numbers are entered above them Beginning on Stamped PG# 311A at LN# 6 to end of PG# 312D and from PG#314A to the end of Highland County on PG# 320C the DW#s and FM#s are lined through and new numbers are entered above them. The original numbers are a dark ink. The new numbers are lighter and sometimes difficult to read. The page with the unchanged number which I have used (313C) has DW#s 355-361 and FM#s 361-366 that duplicate the changed numbers that I used on 315B Pages between 313A and 314D are stamped out of sequence (313C, D which is blank, 314A, U?R) At the end of Fairfield Township 320C the enumerator entered a certification statement on lines 23-28 and then on line 31 added one more name with data. All through Fairfield Township, I have noticed that spellings for several first names is questionable Margret (Margaret), Birtha (Bertha), Micheal (Michael)
