Cass Co. NE. 1876-1882.

From NE Roots list -

I was informed by the Archivist in Plattsmouth, NE. about the census for Cass Co. 1876-1882 on microfilm. My family passed through there around this time; and because of her suggestion, I have been able to pinpoint their time in Plattsmouth. There is a census for each year contained in 9 rolls. I have been able to order these films from the Nebraska State Historical Society for a fee.

The microfilms are:

Roll 1

#19,808 1876 - Avoca Precinct thru 1876 - Plattsmouth city, page 115

Note: 8-Mile Pct. was filmed with the "M's" on this roll. It will be microfilmed with the "E's" on the following reels.

Note: Retake, 1876 - Plattsmouth city, page 74 was missed in filming. Retake spliced at end of the reel.

Roll 2

#19,809 1876 - Plattsmouth City, page 116 thru 1877 - Elmwood Pct. pg. 43.

Roll 3

#19,810 1877 - Elmwood Pct. cont. pg. 44 thru 1877 - Tipton Pct.

Roll 4

#19,811 1877 - Weeping Water Pct. thru 1878 - Stove Creek Pct.

Roll 5

#19,812 1878 - Tipton Pct. thru 1879 - Rock Bluffs Pct.

Roll 6

#19,813 1879 - Salt Creek Pct. thru 1880 - Plattsmouth City, pg. 69.

Roll 8

#19,815 1881 - Louisville Pct. cont. pg 41. thru 1882 - Avoca Pct.

Roll 9

#19,816 1882 - Tipton Pct. thru Undated material.

Note: Not all pcts were available for the 1882 census.

So, order the # you wish through interlibrary loan from the Nebraska State Historical Society, P. O. Box 82554, 1500 R Street, Lincoln, NE 68501. Hope this will help those researching in the Cass Co. area. It helped me, and I would not have known about it unless I visited the Cass County Historical Society in Plattsmouth, NE.

Sincerely, Linda
