Disclaimer:

1850-1880 U.S. Federal Census Mortality Schedules can be found on Ancestry.com (with a census subscription). Those found on this website are my transcriptions of the mortality schedule images and are always subject to corrections and additions. If you are looking for a certain surname and don't find it, please check the actual images as the handwriting is often difficult to interpret. In addition, please keep in mind that these are not the only deaths occurring between Federal Censuses, but only in the years listed.
