    1. 1840 Lincoln TN census is now online
    2. Hello Lincoln TN researchers, 1840 Lincoln TN census transcription is now online. http://www.us-census.org/states/tennessee/l-tn.htm#Lincoln Lil Marlau and Jane Waller are listed as the transcribers. Many pages of the census images I obtained were very difficult to read; however, I transcribed the data as best I could. When I found that Jane Waller had transcribed the 1840 Lincoln TN census in 1970, I contacted George Waller, her son, and got a copy of her book. I compared my transcription with hers and defered to her judgement where I could not see a clear difference in the census image. Because my transcription would have contained inferior information for researchers had it not been for Jane Waller's work, I have listed her as a co-transcriber. In addition, I added the information for the columns that Jane's transcription was missing. Happy hunting, Lil Marlau
