Book excerpt: Excerpt from Index to 1850 United States Federal Census of Indiana Indexing was all done from the first positive film copies made by the National Archives. The microfilm was dim and in many instances entire pages were illegible. Some of these pages were later checked with the original books in the National Archives, Washington, D.C. Page numbers are for the most part the handwritten continuous paging given in the upper right hand corner of the film. Indexing of the microfilm was done by the staff of the Genealogy Division and Mrs. Ruth Slevin was the principal transcriber. None of this indexing was double checked. Alphabetizing of the 3 by 5 cards was per formed by numerous staff members of the Division over the years. This alphabetizing was also not checked and consequently there are errors. In 1969, the Public Library of Fort wayne and Allen County contracted with the Indiana State Library to have the 3 by 5 cards typed. In addition to financing the typing of this project, the Fort Wayne Library was permitted typed copies for their own library use. Distribution, sale, or exchange of any copies of the Indiana 1850 census index is forbidden without specific written authorization by the Indiana State Library.
