Looking at genealogy and looking at old census reports, I see that people lived in Militia Districts. These were apparently set up at the Revolutionary War or at least before or shortly after the Civil War.
Mostly by the turn of the century, they were just used for voting and census takers. Used to be used for taxes, election districts, Justice of the Peace Courts, etc.
