The federal census of Vermont for 1800 was never published by the government. It survived in the form of the original enumerators' sheets until 1938, when the Vermont Historical Society published it for the first time. Since the 1790 census showed Vermont's population to be 85,000 and the 1800 census indicated that it had grown to 154,396, the value of this later census to the genealogist is obvious. The records in this publication are grouped under the counties of Addison, Bennington, Caledonia, Chittenden, Essex, Franklin, Orange, Rutland, Windham, and Windsor, and thereunder by towns. Names of the heads of households are given in full and for each there is given, in tabular form, the number of free white males and females, by five age groups, and the number of other associated persons except untaxed Indians. Altogether over 25,000 families are listed. Includes a map of the state in 1796.
For years, Marilyn Cross has enjoyed researching and writing about the area and residents of Lewis, New York, where she grew up. With some gentle prodding from a cousin, Marilyn pulled out her research materials to create this book. "Whispering Mountains" tells the story of the town of Lewis, New York. Lewis celebrated its bicentennial in 2005. Download the "Preview" to see if your family are included in the book's index. If you have more pictures, anecdotes or records that ought to be included in this book, or if you have better identifications for any of the pictures, or if you spot any errors, please contact Barb Matthews at barb@oncalldba.com. This book is an evergreen document that can be added to as additional material becomes available. Purchase a book here, or contact Marilyn directly at crossm@bluemoo.com.
