Volunteers keypunch 1850 Lorain County census records
Lorain County Genealogical Workshop volunteers spent nearly a year creating 7300 index cards for every household in 1850 Lorain County. They mailed the cards to Columbus for keypunching and will later alphabetize them back in Elyria. The project, led by Dale Kellogg, includes cross checks with marriages, wills, citizenship lists, and old histories to preserve names, occupations, and relationships.
