NEW MEXICO

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.


New Mexico was admitted as the 47th state January 6, 1912.
