David,--- or anyone else know where I might find a copy of the 1850 Hardin Co. Census. Ancestry.com only has a list of names, but no images. In Tony Hays book (a short excerpt of it I found on another website) there are Court Records for 1856 & 1858 which lists court cases for a Marion and a Thomas Winchester for A & B and Disturbing Public Worship. I find in 1850 (there was no 1860) are William, Robertson and Ruth Winchester in the 2nd Dist., Russell and Mary in the 3rd Dist., while George and Rosey (his mother) are in Henderson. I would love to know who Marion & Thomas "belonged" to. Any and all help appreciated. Norma W. Matthews

Norma I noticed that someone sent you a link to the 1850 census trancription for Hardin County. I wanted to let you know that the images are there on ancestry.com. The census is indexed, but the index is not linked to the image. Here is the way you can look up the image. Use the look up to find the page number on the census. Go back to the search screen and drop down under the 1850 index (not the blue screen, but the written list below the screen). From there click on Tennessee and then Hardin County. You can then lgo to the page you found in the index. A good rule of thumb is if the first page is 193 (which is the first number on 1850 Hardin County records), subtract 193 from your page number and then double the number. (Example: If you are looking for page, subtract 193 from 260 which equals 67. Multiplied by 67 by 2 = 134. You shoup be about 134 pages from your image. So, put 135 in the block marked "go to image" and you are at page 260). You should be able to get pretty close to the page you are looking for with this method. Sometimes this isn't exact, but most of the time it does.

While we are discussing the 1850 census, does anyone know who transcribed the 1850 census record that is posted on rootsweb? I have two or three of my families that are misindexed and would like to have it corrected.
