Jefferson Twp., Part 2
Dickinson Co.
1885 Kansas State Census

The following is the transcription of the second half Jefferson township in 1885. New Basel is listed as the post office, and B. W. Peck was the enumerator. I divided up this township to make it easier to find names on the search engine. Some pages were faint and difficult to read--if you have any corrections to this census, let me know.
