This book does not contain residents of Jackson and Wellston, ONLY RURAL RESIDENTS of Jackson County. The residents are listed alphabetically within Rural Routes in the book. However, I have sorted all the residents in the book by surname, so there is only one overall list here. Each person generally has listed his occupation, size of property (if a farm), whether owner or tenent, and location (rural route number, village or street). Unmarried women are listed as Miss or Widow.
On page four is a listing of County Officers and Township Officers. They are listed here (before the other residents):
