The following is a Return of Deaths in the township of Jefferson, county of Morris, State of New Jersey, from the 1st day of June 1857 to the first day of June 1858. Spelling of names and places is as found on the records. In some instances no name was listed, or dashes were shown on the record. In the interests of space I have made the following abbreviations to the words that were completely spelled out on the original: - in the column where listing Sex of Deceased I have listed just F for female and M for male - in some instances no indication was given
- in the column where listing Married or Single, I have listed M for married and S for single; W for Widow/er
- I have excluded occupation due to lack of information in most items. (See end of page for list of occupations
