1894
Michigan State Census This document lists the names by ward, township, and county of United
States Soldiers of the Civil War Residing in Michigan, June 1, 1894. The
information was extracted from the 1894 Michigan State Census. Since the 1890
federal census was destroyed in a fire, researchers can use this list of
names as an additional tool beyond the census, to document their ancestors
whereabouts during the 1890's. There are approximately 50,000 names provided.
