| Indiana Territory was formed in 1800 from Northwest Territory; Indiana achieved statehood in 1816. There were no 1800 or 1810 territorial censuses; the entire 1890 census was lost. | ||||||||
| NOTE: Before Iowa achieved statehood in 1846, one abbreviation for Indiana was "Ia.," and many census enumerators continued to use "Ia." as the abbreviation for Indiana well after 1846, simply not abbreviating the name for the state of Iowa, at all. Indexers of the 1850 Indiana census have mis-interpreted birthplace, "Ia.," as meaning, "Iowa," with the absurd result, for example, that over 100,000 people in Indiana in 1850 are shown as born in Iowa. So, when you find the abbreviation, "Ia.," as an individual's birthplace in the census (especially an adult in 1850), use your head in interpreting whether it means Indiana or Iowa. |
