U.S. Census Office, Cane Sugar, Maple Sugar, Sorghum Molasses, Honey (1864)

This is a snapshot of a table from the 1864 U.S. Census Office report following the 1860 Census. It shows the quantity of types of sugar produced per state in 1860. We focused specifically on the amount of cane sugar produced per state and used this data to create a pie chart. The original table, recreated table, and pie chart can be viewed on these spreadsheets.
