G'day folks, I found the following census records in Estes Trails, 1989, vol.9, no.2, pp.9-12. It previously appeared in "Estes of America Newsletter", 1970, vol 4, no 2, p.14ff. Since a lot of Estes passed thru' TN and some of the early TN census records were lost, I thought ya'll might be interested. If you can identify any of these folks, please let me know who they are. Some I'll be able to place once I look at the information, other's I likely wont. In order the columns (of numbers) are: 0-5, 5-10, 10-15, 15-20, 20-30, 30-40, 40-50, 50-60, 60-70. First row are males, 2nd females. There were no entries for people over 70 (ie all further columns were "0"), so I've left these out.[*] Also if the "females" row ends short, just add in the zero's yourself. :) At the end of each male row there is a number split by a "/" .. eg: 14/12. This means, in this example, line 14, page 12 (as appears in the original census). [*] When I got about half-way thru' I found a lady who lived to her 80's, which threw my system out a bit .. you'll see her as you scroll down. <g> Cocke Co, TN Estes, Micajah 0 1 0 3 0 0 0 1 0 30/20 3 2 1 3 0 2 0 0 1 Claiborne Co, TN Estes, John R. 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 14/12 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 Estes, Elisha 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 19/12 2 1 0 2 0 1 Estridge, James 0 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 0 21/28 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 Estrege, Jeremiah 2 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 34/1 2 1 0 0 1 Estrege, Lawson 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 39/30 none!

If you know of an Estes' who _was_ in TN in 1840 and isn't listed above, please let me know. Oh, an Estes', that is, who was head of a household. Cheers, David. -- I bless the day I met you and I thank God that he let you lay beside me for a moment that lives on and the good news is I'm better for the time we spent together and the bad news is you're gone. - "You're Gone", Diamond Rio DC2.D A+++!
