Utah 1860 Mortality Schedule

County Residents
What is a "mortality schedule"? When a census was taken, the enumerators were to collect information on all persons who had died during the previous 12 months. This information is included on a mortality schedule. The 1860 mortality schedule lists deaths from 1 June 1859 through 31 May 1860.
Enumerators of early census's were not known for their meticulous records. Errors and omissions were fairly common. If a person was listed, it was likely they belonged there; but if a person was not listed, the possibility remains that they were missed -- as deaths were often under-reported.
*Note in the comment section that there are several birth place listings that are questionable. This information is in the process of being verified.
