1850 Federal Population
Census
Transcribed and shared with GHOTES by Nanette Davis.
Here is my transcription of page 304B of the 1850 NH census. It is possible
that Hog Island families can be found on page 304A --in fact I know the
Fletchers who are listed did live there but it only complicates things to
include the maybes. This page 304B is clearly filled in as '' Hog Island'' and
then there is a note written in pencil on the line next to Charles Kelly but
this may have been written in much later. Nanette Davis
