Often, aged and/or infirmed people were exempt by court order to be Exempt from taxes. In some cases, these were military veterans. Also, a person adjoudged to be "unbalanced, insane, etc., could be exempt.

I see on the 1820 census that there is the last column entitled, "all other persons except Indians not taxed". It sounds self explanatory, but I cannot figure out what "other" group of people are left to count after all of the other headings....free white males, free white females, male and female slaves, then free colored persons, then that last column, "all other persons except Indians not taxed". Well, who could that be for? I see several possible relatives, and a handful have a household member in that category. What other kind of person is there left to count? > Thanks, > Jess. > > >--------------------------------- >Be a better sports nut! Let your teams follow you with Yahoo Mobile.
