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

CENSUS TIPS :
• People sometimes gave wrong answers because they didn't understand the question.
• Most people did not read or write and sometimes their memories were inaccurate.
• Census takers determined their own routes, so people are not listed in any particular order.
