Boone County Mortality Index - 1850
Included in the 1850 census was a mortality schedule that asked
questions regarding those who died in the twelve months prior
to the enumeration. It lists persons who died between 1 June and
31 May of the year prior to the census. This database is an index
extraction for Boone County, Indiana. The schedule lists
the deceased name, sex, age, place of birth, month of death, occupation,
and cause of death. Mortality schedules are essentially death
registers that predate the recording of most Boone County vital
statistics. While deaths are under-reported, the mortality schedules
remain an invaluable source of information. Remember that an index
is only a reference to more detailed information found in the
census records themselves. It is important that researchers consult
the actual mortality census records to which this index refers.
These can be found at the National Archives and regional archives,
LDS Family History Libraries and Centers, and at many large libraries.
