Source: 1850 Federal Census of Adams County Wisconsin, State Historical
Society of Wisconsin (second) copy of the census. Adams County was enumerated
as District Number 3 of Sauk County. If you find your family below and wish
to see the original census record, before leaving these pages, you will need
to note the County, township, family number, and names so you can quickly
find your family on the microfilm at a large library that holds Wisconsin
census microfilm or by renting the film at an LDS Family History Center. For
answers to more questions about the census, please check this page
Note: The comments in parentheses below were added by the site coordinator
after reviewing both the Federal and State's copies of this difficult to
read census. Though we have done our best, there may still be errors. If
you spot an error please let Joan know so it can be noted here.
