Den här samlingen innehåller kopior på kompletterande tabeller till folkräkningar. Från och med 1850 års folkräkning returnerade folkräknarna ytterligare tabeller med uppgifter om namn på avlidna personer, jordbruksdata för att belysa etablering samt social statistik. Formulären för 1850 och 1860 års folkräkningar var näst intill identiska, men för 1870 och 1880 varierade frågorna och formulärnumren.

    History of the collection

    Most researchers are familiar with the federal census which occurs every ten years and tracks population data; however some states may also have conducted non-population schedules to keep track of available resources and societal needs. Not all states utilized non-population schedules.

    Kentucky conducted various non-population schedules to track manufacturing, agriculture, and social statistics. Additionally, a schedule known as the "DDD Schedule" (Defectives, delinquents, and dependent classes) tracked populations who were impoverished, orphans, prisoners, or who had disabilities. Some of the language in this collection may be outdated or offensive, as it is displayed as it was originally recorded. Displaying records in their original state provides opportunities to learn about the specific times, places, and socio-cultural environments of our ancestors.
