MAP INDEX I.


BUILDING SITES STILL OCCUPIED (1882).


The " Historical Map of Sanbornton " accompanying this volmine Is designed to represent, first, all the dwelling-houses and most of the public bulldings, millls, shops, etc., now occupied, within the limits of the original town, Incluid- . Ing Tilton and the northeast corner of Franklin ; and second, all the abandoned building sites upon the several lots within the saine territory.


In seven different localitles, however, the present bulldings, together with the old sites in the smaller villages, are too numerous to be clearly dellucated upon the principal map of the town. For these, seven " Village Plans" have been drawn upon a separate sheet, with the following names and designa- tions : -


IN THE TOWN OF SANBORNTON.


1. "Sanbornton Square," designated in this Index "S. I."


2. "The Chapel," designated in this index "S. II."


3. "Sahinon Brook," designated in this index . "S. III."


4. "North Sunbornton," designated in this index "S. IV."


IN THE TOWN OF TILTON.


5. "Tilton Village," designated In this index . 'T. I."


6. "East Tilton," designated in this Index . "T. II."


IN THE TOWN OF FRANKLIN.


7. "Franklin Falls" (Sanbornton sldle), designated in this index 0 "F. I."


Map Index I., therefore, contains (1) In alphabetical order the full names of the joint owners and occupants of all the houses (the same as appear on map and plans, with Initials of first names), and the general names of other build- ings, like "mill," " school-honse," etc. But in case owners and occupants are not the same, the occupants' name, if of a single family or of long residence, is usually entered first, as on map and plans, and the owner's name is afterwards given; or In case the buildings are occupied by more than one family, the owner's name Is first given, as on map and plans, and the occupants or num- ber of tenements are afterwards specified.


Then follow (2) the localities of the several buildings thus entered, being the initial letters of the towns where found upon the map, - "S." for San- boruton, "T." for Tilton, "F." for Franklin, - with Arabie figures, indicating

MAP INDEX I.


the division of lots and the number of lot in cach division; e. g., " S. 2-40," incaning "Sanbornton, Second Division, Lot No. 40" : or in case of the " Vil- lage Plans," the Roman number of the plan as before given; e. g., "S. I.," "S. IV.," "T. I.," " F. I.," ete.


Finally (3), after the several localities, there is given, in a separate coluinn, the number of inhabitants residing in every house In the summer of 1882, con- stituting a new census of the original town for that year. These enumera- tious are mainly ou the authority of persons residing In each school district or locality of the old town; and in a few cases the number of summer resi- dents as given may be somewhat larger than at other seasons of the year. Vacant houses, also, which were likely soon to be reoceupled, especially in or near the villages, have a reasonable number assigned to them.


According to this census the population of the whole original town of San- bornton is found to be, in 1882, 3,654, or 325 more than ever before enumer- ated. (See p. 326.)


Population of the present town of Sanbornton in 1882, 1,193, one more than in 1880.


Population of the town of Tilton in 1882, 1,386, an increase of 104 since 1880. That of Tilton Village, 861.


That of Tilton outside of the village preeinet, as per Plan I., 525.


Population of that part of Franklin which was formerly Saubornton, in 1882, 1,075.


That of Franklin Falls Village (Suboruton side), 881.


That of Franklin (Sanbornton) outside of the village precinct, as per plan, 194.
