When the stamped page numbers were added, they were placed only on the front-side. The reverse-side of the page was not stamped. An "a" has been added to the number on the pages that were stamped. For the reverse-side of the page, a "b" has been added to the same number that's stamped on the front-side. NOTE: In Grant Township, the sheet following stamped page 157 was not stamped, therefore, when numbering the image-files a "c" and "d" were added to 157.
