SCHOOL CHILDREN (& other children) ENUMERATION There is a series of microfilm at the jail museum library that might be helpful to some researchers. There is no index available, but look-ups & copies may be possible. The original records were submitted to the county by the trustee of the township, usually in the month of April or May. The first column enumerates the "Parents, Guardians, Heads of Families, or persons having charge of child or children" The second column : "Names of Children Enumerated 3rd - 6th column: "Date, Age and Place of Birth" (of the child) 7th column: Occupation. (State whether the child attends school, is regularly employed or unemployed ) 8th column "Years of schooling completed" 9th & 10th column -- gender, male or female 11th column: No. of School District 12th column: No. of Congressional District 13th - 15th columns --misc. The time period of the records is from 1896 to 1924. Nearly every year is represented for all townships. Each township is kept together, but surnames within the township are listed by school district, not alphabetically. If you are interested in requesting data from this type of record, please contact me.
