Surnames

A partial list of surnames has been added here, for completion over time. Names that couldn't be discerned confidently on a first pass have been skipped and will be revisited. Images through 32 of 306 have parsed so far.

Full listing

Below is a table with my best guess at every encountered surname in the source. Progress is noted in "Surnames" section. Columns are page instance encounters; in ##(#), ## = image / page number and # = number of times appearing on imaged page. Constructs like "(f/p)" indicates that the letter could be either an f or a p; "?" means an indecipherable letter. This table incidentally indicates the number of families with a given surname in Fayette County (when complete).
