Note: Wayne County, Northwest Territory, reported in 1800, had virtually all its enumerated population in the Detroit area and hence is shown under Michigan. In 1810 the Ohio portion of its 1800 area was included in many Ohio counties, but it has not been shown as an origin because its Ohio portion was virtually unenumerated in 1800. The present Wayne County was organized in 1812.
