Tallahatchie County Mississippi Mortality Schedule, taken from Roll C106-3 Mississippi, Mortality Schedules. This roll of film is in very bad shape--Some pages can be read very well, and others it is impossible to read. There is a lot of information as to how a report should be done in the INSTRUCTIONS, but it is so light I have to strain my eyes to read it, therefore; I left this off. Note E; Upon this schedule should be CAREFULLY RETURNED. 1st. Every death which has occured in this enumeration district during the Census year, wheather the deceased was or was not at death, a member of any family which resided June 1, 1880, in the district. 2s. Every death which has occured outside this enumeration district during the Census year, the deceased being at date of death a member of a family which redided June 1, 1880 in the enumeration district. The enumerator should make enteries upon this Schedule with great care, seeking every source of information. When a positive statement is impossible, as when an age can only be estimated, or a birth place must be conjectured, the entry may be inclosed in parentheses, thus Age (25) meaning that the best estimate of the age that can be given is 25 years. Schedule 5-Persons who died during the year ending May 31, 1880, Enumeration. Col. 1, could not read. Col. 2-Name of the person deceased. Col. 3-age-Col 6-Sex-Col 5-Color/Race Col. 6-Single, Col 7-married, Col 8, Widowed/Divorced Col 9-state born in/10-Fathers Birth place/11 mothers birth place Col 12-Occupation, Col 13, Month died/ Col 14 Cause of death Col 15, cant reat, col 16 cant read, Col 17-Attending Physicians name. 1 2-Page 1-Sup Dist 3 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 13 Shannon, James 26 M B 1 * * La La La Farmer April Hemorrge Lung 13 * Dr Knew 25 Averry, Liza 7 F B 1 * * Ga Va Ga * June Dropsy 4 * Dr.Jones ?
