This is perhaps the most important census of Dodge County, taken as it was 76 years ago, which is now approximately the mid point of the countie's existance. These are people in the census that were alive at the creation of the county and there are people in the census alive today ( including yours truly).

The census is broken down by 14 Militia Districts and seven towns. Also shown is the village of Cottondale, the Dodge County jail inmates and the inmates of the county convict camp. The census is broken down by race.

To improve accuracy, questionable names were crossed checked against huge data base maintained by the writer. An accuaracy exceeding 99% was obtained.
