ARIZONA
Census and tax records of NANCE/NANTZ,/NANTS
and other various spellings of the surnames NANCE that
I have been able to find.
PLEASE bear with me I am doing the best I can with
deciphering some of the handwriting on some of these
census'.
These
transcriptions may contain human errors. As always,
confirm these, as you would any other source
material.
In census before 1850 I am trying to
put names where it only list the # of males and female.
The additions in this color "green
may include (name, SURNAME, middle name, age and birth
date)"
and are MY inclusions.
Arizona was the 48th state in the
USA; it became a state on February 14, 1912.
