Bohnert-Gibbar Heritage - James Peter Kline Census

Gibbar Census

James Peter Kline and

Catherine (nee Tucker) Kline

~ Maternal 2x Great Grandparents ~

The following census pages follow the history of JAMES P. KLINE and CATHERINE TUCKER, our maternal great great grandparents, beginning when each of their names first appear in census records in 1850 and concluding in 1910, the last year for which either of them appear in the census records.

Included for each census is the full census record, as well as a map of the county indicating the township in which they lived at the time the census was taken. Misspellings of names on the census information record are frequent and are often due to inaccurate transcriptions of the original census documents as well as enumerator error.

The family is highlighted in gray. Additional, lighter highlighted areas indicate the households of close relatives.
