1860 Rowan County Kentucky Census
I transcribed this census from the National Archives Microfilm. There are a few problems with the handwriting of the writer of the census, that I could not decipher completely. Several of the cursive capital letters look identical. This would be less of a problem when taken in context of a complete name, however many of the first names were abbreviated by just an initial. Some clue as to the correct initial may be found if you are familiar with the family, e.g. the wife and children. I did not have that advantage in many cases. If you do not find your relative, I suggest that you consider the possibility that an initial is wrong, and check the microfilm itself. I have divided the census into four sections, in order to load them faster. I will also offer a zipped version, when I have time to zip it, which you may download and peruse off-line. The information listed includes; Last name, First name, Age, Occupation and Birthplace. I did not copy the columns which listed the value of land owned and the value of personal property owned. I see no benefit, genealogically from that information.
