To George and all you Sapp searchers! There was no actual census for 1820. However I located a reference to a tax list at the National Archives and ordered a copy of the same from The Missouri State Archives. It's titled Missouri Taxpayers 1819-1826. It appears to be compiled from several sources including Lincoln County: Delinquents 1819 (from the Missouri Republican), Assessor's List for 1821 (from the 1878 Lincoln County Atlas) and miscellaneous legal taxes from the state archives of Missouri. The listings that came from the atlas gave townships where known. The list contains 167 different surnames with many surnames having several given names. I'd be glad to share the list, if anyone would like a lookup. I also sent this information to Robert to include on the Sapp Family History Archive Page. I agree George, everyone should post all queries and the responses to the list....if the information is not useful to us, (and you don't collect all or most of it like I do....never know when something might tie in later)! I'm sure we all know where the delete button is!! Melody
