This is a statewide index to the mortality schedules for these three census years combined. The information contained in these schedule are not only helpful with your genealogical research, it also potentially provides genetic clues with symptoms and disease. Nearly all of the information on the schedules is included. The order in which each entry is set forth is as follows: name of deceased, age, sex, race, free or slave (1850 & 1860 schedules only), marital status, place of birth of deceased, place of birth of deceased's parents (1880 schedules only), occupation (usually omitted by enumerator), month of death, cause of death, county and census year. Note that each census year was the year ended June 1, so the only deaths recorded on these schedules were those occurring in the twelve month periods ended June 1 of 1850, 1860, and 1880.

While geneticists have long been interested in genealogy and genealogists in genetics, only recently have the two fields become linked in a way that promises dramatic advances in our understanding of the relationship between genetic disorders and ancestry. This book, by Los Angeles Times Syndicate columnist Myra Gormley, was a pioneering effort to explore that relationship, to alert people to things they and their family ought to know about both their family tree and genetic research, and to examine the scientific breakthroughs that have made possible the control and treatment of some inherited diseases. Written in a popular style, in language few of us will find difficult to understand, this ground-breaking work examines the genetics revolution and its implications for your health; it discusses genetic diseases and whether you and your family may be at risk; and it explores your mental and behavioral roots--your genetic susceptibility to manic depression, for example, or to alcoholism--all in the framework of ancestry and family health history.
