Every 4 years thereafter (i.e., in 1807, 1811, 1815, 1819, 1823, 1827, 1831, 1835, ...) a quadrennial enumeration of eligible voters was made in order to draw legislative districts of approximately equal population. I can only speak for Washington County, Ohio, where there are certain townships available for certain years, especially ca. the 1830s through the 1850s.
