[edit] Specific county informationThe indexed material available via FamilySearch and indexed by Ancestry.com lacks information for Fayette County:
Imagery is, however, available via Internet Archive, specifically fill roll 59; the first page of Fayette County enumeration appears at https://archive.org/details/populationsc18400059unit/page/n7/mode/2up . The roll title page indicates this is roll 59, Illinois Volume 3 (140-287), inclusive of Fayette, Franklin and Fulton Counties. [edit] General TipsOriginal (microfilm) images of the 1840 Census are sourced as COUNTY, STATE, United States. 1840 U.S. Census Population Schedule.
[edit] SurnamesA 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. [edit] Full listingBelow 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).
