Hello All: I'm posting this to the Rensselaer list, even though West Troy is Albany County, as I know many are confused as I was, as to where the proper census information lies. Below is the information for what areas are contained on the 3 microfilms for the 1855 NY Census for Albany County. I saw a few postings on this last week, and as I had the films on order, transcribed these over the weekend. I'll be doing the same with the 1865 in the next 2 weeks...stay tuned! Best Wishes, Judy Herbert 1855 New York State Census Albany County Locations Included By Microfilm Number Microfilm # 0521922 City / Town Ward Enumeration District Albany 1st Eastern " 2nd " 3rd Western " 4th Western " 4th 2nd " 5th " 6th " 7th Eastern " 8th Eastern " 8th Northern " 9th Eastern " 9th Western " 10th Western " 10th Eastern Microfilm # 0521923 City / Town Ward Enumeration District Berne 1st, 2nd, & 3rd Bethlehem 1st, 2nd Coeymans 1st, 2nd, & 3rd Guilderlands 1st, 2nd, & 3rd Knox 1st, 2nd New Scotland 1st, 2nd, & 3rd Rensselaerville 1st, 2nd & 3rd Microfilm # 0521924 City / Town Ward Enumeration District Watervliet / West Troy * 1st through 6th Westerlo 1st, 2nd *West Troy is included in the Watervliet enumeration.
