1850 Mortality Schedule
Rappahannock County, Virginia

Every column in the schedule has been transcribed. Every effort has been made to transcribe this schedule as written. There may be some errors, but these will mostly be errors in interpretation of writing as opposed to errors of omission. There are some obvious errors made by the census taker in recording sex, for instance, but they have been transcribed exactly as written.
