    'Village names were not included in the original census. The West Reserve Settlement Register, an 1880 census by village compiled by the Mennonite leadership, has made it possible to identify some village residents with certainty; ... Since the census could not always be completed in one village before the next one was started, some of the families included under a village heading may have lived elsewhere. Therefore the village names should be considered only as a guide to the place of residence. ...'
