The surviving fragments consists of 1,233 pages or pieces, including enumerations for Alabama, the District of Columbia, Georgia, Illinois, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, South Dakota, and Texas. The records of only 6,160 of the 62,979,766 people enumerated survived the fire........ The only surviving fragments are as follows: Alabama—Perry County District of Columbia—Q, S, 13th, 14th, RQ, Corcoran, 15th, SE, and Roggs streets, and Johnson Avenue Georgia—Muscogee County (Columbus) Illinois—McDonough County: Mound Township Minnesota—Wright County: Rockford New Jersey—Hudson County: Jersey City New York—Westchester County: Eastchester; Suffolk County: Brookhaven Township North Carolina—Gaston County: South Point Township, Ricer Bend Township; Cleveland County: Township No. 2 Ohio—Hamilton County (Cincinnati); Clinton County: Wayne Township South Dakota—Union County: Jefferson Township Texas—Ellis County: S.P. no. 6, Mountain Peak, Ovila Precinct; Hood County: Precinct no. 5; Rusk County: Precinct no. 6 and J.P. no. 7; Trinity County: Trinity Town and Precinct no. 2; Kaufman County: Kaufman. Fields in this database include: given name, surname, relationship, race, gender, age, birthplace, father's birthplace, and mother's birthplace. If you cannot find your family in this database, it may be useful to look at Ancestry.com's 1890 Census Subsitute.

This is of course a fairly common surname. So your links to MY Carters are a long shot. But I thought I'd mention that one of my g-g-grandfathers was Henry Kendall Carter (1802-1890). He was born in and died in the Hartford, CT, area-- but much of his adult was spent as a cotton broker in Macon, GA, and New Orleans, LA. He in turn was a g-g-grandson of the Rev. Thomas Carter (1609-1684), who was a 1633 graduate of Cambridge Univ. in England and, from 1642 to 1684, was the first Puritan minister of Woburn, MA. You also express an interest in ACKERMANs. And below, for what it's worth (probably not very much), is an abridged printout from my database on Ackermans: 1st Generation: David ACKERMAN #9220 b. 1615, AFN:8DF9-JF, m. 09 16 1641, Netherlands, Elizabeth BELLIER #9221, b. 01 24 1616, AFN:99XP-22, d. 1668, Harlem, NY, NY. 2nd Generation: David ACKERMAN b. 1653, Netherlands, bap. 10 05 1653, AFN:99XP-6Q, m. 03 13 1680, in New York, NY, NY, Hillegond VERPLANCK b.
