Stoke (Richmond Co.) ; Hampton (Compton Co.) ; Ditton (Compton Co.) ; Marston; Whitton (Frontenac Co.) ; Clinton (Frontenac Co.) ; Chesham (Frontenac Co.) . This was the first 'good' census in that all family members are named and age-next-birthday, as well as country-of-birth and religious affiliation. There were 50 names to a full page/folio so there is quite a bit of information. The Agricultural portion is 1 line/household and serves as an unsorted index as well as giving Range-Lot etc info.
