The transcription of the 1870 census of Rowan Co is now complete. Pine Grove precinct was uploaded this morning. http://tpettit.best.vwh.net/rowan/census/1870PineGrove.html Pine Grove is the northern part of Rowan County, including at least the communities of Triplett, Cranston, and Waltz and all points north of there. (It might also include Haldeman, Gates and Hays Crossing, but those might be in Christy Creek instead. If anyone knows the precinct borders for each census year, I would greatly appreciate your contacting me.) There are a very large number of HAM families listed in Pine Grove precinct, so if you have Ham/Hamm ancestry you will definitely want to check this out. http://tpettit.best.vwh.net/rowan/census/1870index05.html#Ham Since my own relatives were from the southern part of the county, this section has many fewer annotations for maiden names, corrections, etc. than the other precincts do. (Compare the right hand column on the Pine Grove pages with those for Christy Creek and Pearce, and you will see what I mean.) So if anyone with ancestors from this part of the county can supply that kind of annotation, it will be appreciated.
