All, I would like someone to confirm my logic on an 1820 census item. The age ranges for free white males include one column for 16-18, and one column for 16 and under 26. Assume there is one male listed in the 16-18 and only one male listed in the 16-26. That means there is only one male between 16 and 25, and he is also the same one listed as between 16 and 18. Correct? Assume there is one male listed in the 16-26 column, and no male listed in the 16-18 column. That means that the one male 16-26 is actually between 18 and 26. Correct? Duhhh. this stuff is driving me nuts. Peace, Part of the Tree, Greg

Those are the instructions to the enumerators. So, we /hope and assume/ those instructions were followed. Our conclusions incorporate other enumerations and other records supporting or refuting the 1820 statistics.
