Description:
This database details those persons enumerated in the
1820 United States Federal Census, the Fourth Census of
the United States. In addition, the names of those listed
on the population schedule are linked to the actual
images of the 1820 Federal Census, copied from the
National Archives and Records Administration microfilm,
M33, 142 rolls. (If you do not initially find the name on
the page that you are linked to, try a few pages forward
or backward, as sometimes different pages had the same
page number.)
Enumerators of the 1820 census were asked to include the
following categories in the census: name of head of
household, number of free white males and females in age
categories: 0 to 10, 10 to 16, 16 to 26, 26 to 45, 45 and
older; number of other free persons except Indians not
taxed; number of slaves; and town or district and county
of residence. Additionally, the 1820 census for the first
time asked the number of free white males 16 to 18;
number of persons to be naturalized; number engaged in
agriculture, commercial, or manufacture; number of
"colored" persons (sometimes in age
categories); and number of other persons except Indians.
The categories allowed Congress to determine persons
residing in the United States for collection of taxes and
the appropriation of seats in the House of
Representatives. Most entries are arranged in the order
of visitation, but some have been rearranged to appear in
alphabetical order by initial letter of the surname.
Manufacturing schedules are scattered among the 1820
population schedules.
Extended Description:
The United States was the first country to call for a
regularly held census. The Constitution required that a
census of all "Persons...excluding Indians not
taxed" be performed to determine the collection of
taxes and the appropriation of seats in the House of
Representatives. The first nine censuses from 1790-1870
were organized under the United States Federal Court
system. Each district was assigned a U.S. marshal who
hired other marshals to administer the census. Governors
were responsible for enumeration in territories.
The official enumeration day of the 1820 census was 7
August 1820. All questions asked were supposed to refer
to that date. The count was due within six months, but
the due date was extended by law to allow completion
within thirteen months. By 1820, there were a total of
twenty-three states in the Union. The six new states were
Louisiana, Indiana, Mississippi, Illinois, Alabama and
Maine. There was, however, a district wide loss for
Arkansas Territory, Missouri Territory and New Jersey.
Partial losses included half the counties in Alabama, and
roughly 20 eastern Tennessee counties supervised by the
Federal Court District out of Knoxville. Some of the
schedules for these states have been re-created using tax
lists and other records.
