The following table is a short index to images of the 1860 census of Waseca Co, MN. The images are in a standard Tagged Image File Format (TIFF version 6.0, CCITT G4 compression). Viewers are widely available for most systems to enable you to download these images, but you may need to search the Internet for one. New Windows95 and WindowsNT systems are now shipping with the Wang viewer already installed. You can also acquire a copy of this viewer from Microsoft's WEB page at no-charge.
These images are large. I spent many hours trying to get their size down to a reasonable number and found that this is about the best I dare do considering the quality of the microfilm they were copied from.
The quality of the microfilm is not great, but it is readable for the most part. I have made effort to enhance the images. They were originally scanned on a Bell&Howell 3338 with some built-in processing capabilities too.
Indexing by Tom Doyle. Enjoy!
