Rawdon Township Historical Transcript Coverage Chart Rawdon Township, Hastings County is a rectangle originally made up of 14 Concession Roads with each having 24 lots of 200 acres. The map on the following page shows the dimensions of the township from the 1878 Belden Atlas. The Historical Transcripts in this series comprise Assessment Rolls, Collectors Rolls, Militia Rolls and Voters Lists. Some of these documents are in good condition while others are missing pages or entire documents for the year. To show the coverage of the transcript, a simple chart was made to identify if an entry was made for the concession and lot. The pattern of marks on the chart indicates if the entire township is represented by the transcript or if a portion is missing. Depending on the year, some lots may have had multiple residents which is not reflected in the coverage chart. If the chart below indicates that a portion is missing then you would have to find an ajacent year with the missing portion to get a complete picture of the residents for that time period. 1838 AR RAWDON TRANSCRIPT COVERAGE CON/LOT 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 LOT/CON 1X X X X X X X X X XXX X X X X X X X 1 2X X X X X X X X X X2 X X X X 33 X X X X X X X X 4X X X X4 X X X X X XXX 5X X X5 X X X X XXX X X 6X6 X X 7X X X7 8X8 X 9XXX9 1010 11X11 1212 1313 14X14 CON/LOT 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 LOT/CON NOTE: Given the early year of 1838, this transcript probably represents the entire population of the township. The inhabitants of the township are arranged exactly as they are found in the original document. This is not intended to be a substitute for the original entries. Researchers are advised to use it as a finding aid only and are urged to consult the originals for verification. All entries have been input into a computer from the original and then proof-read against the original. We apologize for any errors or mis-calculations which may occur. As with all transcribing, it is often difficult to interpret names and other information. It is our policy to enter what was actually written by the enumerators. It is left up to the user to determine any further interpretation. It is not the transcriber's role to research too deeply into faulty spelling and cases where the writing was illegible are marked with a question mark (?) after our best interpretation of the entry.
