Appreciate the comments on my dilemma? as always everyone has been most
helpful here on the Forsyth County list! I'm also sending this to the
Madison county list......Can anyone help?

#1 page 22, Madison County, Danielsville P O. Dwelling #166 Family #177 in
order of visitation. Gabriel Nash was the census enumerator, also his (Nash)
family is enumerated on this page, he is listed as age 70. Census was taken
on 27th of June, 1870. Wm. Aaron age 49, Nancy age 60.

#2 Page 103, Madison county Danielsville P O. Dwelling # 5 Family #1 in
order of visitation. Census enumerator was Gabriel Nash. Census was taken on
18 of August, 1870. William Aaron age 57, with Nancy age 66.

These are page numbers at top of an actual page, as if you were viewing a
hard copy.
