 North Carolina, USA, bundesstaatliche Volkszählung, 1784-1787

Diese Volkszählung des Bundesstaats North Carolina stammt aus der Zeit vor den US-föderalen Volkszählungsregistern und ist eine wertvolle Ressource für die frühe Familienforschung in North Carolina.

This database contains a transcription of a state census taken in North Carolina between 1784 and 1787.

Historical Background

A 1784 act in North Carolina gave county courts the responsibility of enumerating their population. This count took place between 1785 and 1787, which means it may include individuals who were no longer living in North Carolina when the first federal census was taken in 1790.

What You Can Find in the Records

Compiled from original records in the North Carolina Department of Archives and History, this work lists 14,000 heads of households and provides an enumeration of individuals in each household by age, sex, and race. In addition, individuals named are listed under a reference to the original census page, thus furnishing the researcher with a key to the manuscript records.
