Caveat: The righthand farm statistics page is often mis-matched with the lefthand census page. This township seems to be matched correctly. Transcriber's Notes: No line numbers appear on the original census. Line numbers have been assigned to indicate the enumeration order. Written on the top left corner of page 6: "No of Inhabitance 479 in Buchanan Township. Secretary of State". Note that the summary page at bottom shows 478 inhabitance. =============================================================================================================================================================================== CENSUS-YEAR: 1856 STATE: Iowa COUNTY: Page DIVISION: Buchanan Township ENUMERATOR: W.
