Clay Township
The 1852 census included columns for "Colored Males" and "Colored Females," but none were listed for any of the townships.

CENSUS TIPS : Iowa territorial and state censuses contian information not included in the federal census. The censuses for 1885 and 1895 are particularly valuable as the 1990 Federal census has been lost.
