In 1815, Turbot and Chillisquaque were reannexed to Northumberland. "Turbot" is the current official spelling, but you will often see it spelled "Turbut" or "Turbet" in historical documents. (The Washington Twp. in Snyder Co., today, was formed in 1818 from Penn Twp. while in Union Co., <em>i.e</em>., the Washington Twp. currently in Snyder Co. was a new creation and not originally part of the Washington Twp. currently in Northumberland Co.)</p></line><line><p>In the 1830 Census, there was an <span style="color: #000000;">Augusta</span> Twp. in Northumberland Co.
