Note: This chart is not intended to give all the details for an individual. The actual schedule lists more details on crops and livestock. Since the Agriculture Schedule was handwritten and some of the entries were difficult to read, the transcriber may have misinterpreted some data. A ? indicates that data was not able to be interpreted. Be sure to check all possible spellings and allow for a name that may have been interpreted incorrectly.
