*According to Lainhart, Indiana county assessors were supposed to take a state census every six years starting in 1853. She also quotes ''Ancestry's Red Book'' saying enumerations were made at various intervals starting in 1820. Most of these incomplete originals are apparently at county archives. The Indiana State Library at Indianapolis has a few for 1931, 1919, 1913, 1901, 1889, 1883, 1877, 1871, and 1857.<ref name="Lainh" /> Many are also published in periodicals.<ref name="Shawha" | *According to Lainhart, Indiana county assessors were supposed to take a state census every six years starting in 1853.
