The Twelfth Census of the United States for Lewis Co., WA Census can be found on Microfilm series T623, Roll 1746, Enumeration Districts 123 - 135. The following table lists all the precincts enumerated, and the number of people enumerated, based on a quick survey I did while at the NARA branch in Seattle. I have also posted transcriptions for several precincts; they are linked in the table.
The census records all individuals who were alive on June 1, 1900. If a person was deceased after June 1, they were recorded on the census. Any children born after June 1 were not recorded. Additionally, a special census was taken of Indian Populations in Lewis County - these records are included under the precinct in which they were enumerated.
If you would like to contribute any transcriptions or indexing efforts (partial or complete), I would be happy to post them. Please note: you would need to have access to the census microfilm, such as at a National Archives Regional branch, through a Family History Center, or ordering from the National Archives Microfilm Purchase and Rental program. Send an e-mail to Jenny Tenlen for more information.
A Cumulative Index of all names transcribed to date is available.
