Wisconsin State Census, 1855 - FamilySearch Historical Records/Known Issues

Question 1
Question 1: Can you please clarify the strange indexing done in the Dane &gt; Dane county waypoint for the Fitchburg area? Answer #1: In Dane County (Fitchburg), images 63-67 seem to be entered incorrectly. In houses with married couples, the enumerator put two people on the same line as a married couple but the indexer read the script “+” sign as an “or” and made them one individual.

Question 2
Question 2: I am finding a locality of Garmington in Waupaca County. Is this an actual location? Answer 2: No, the indexer has incorrectly indexed page 26 in the Waupaca &gt; Waupaca waypoint as Garmington. It should be Farmington.
