Note that these numbers are DIFFERENT than was used in 1881.
When there are similar files for different counties, the are
differentiated by using the above "alpha code" as the first digit
of the FILENAME, and the last two digits of the census year as the
second and third digits. For example, every County has its own
list of Enumeration Districts, and they differ each census decade.
