| About 1850 United States Federal Census | |||||||||||||||||
| This database is an index to individuals enumerated in the 1850 United States Federal Census, | |||||||||||||||||
| the Seventh Census of the United States. Census takers recorded many details including each | |||||||||||||||||
| person's name, age as of the census day, sex, color; birthplace, occupation of males over age | |||||||||||||||||
| fifteen, and more. No relationships were shown between members of a household. | |||||||||||||||||
| For the first time in the history of the United States census, enumerators of the 1850 census | |||||||||||||||||
| were instructed to record the names of every person in the household. Added to this, enumerators | |||||||||||||||||
| were presented with printed instructions, which account for the greater degree of accuracy | |||||||||||||||||
| compared with earlier censuses. Enumerators were asked to include the following categories in the | |||||||||||||||||
| census: name; age as of the census day; sex; color; birthplace; occupation of males over age fifteen; | |||||||||||||||||
| value of real estate; whether married within the previous year; whether deaf-mute, blind, insane, | |||||||||||||||||
| or "idiotic"; whether able to read or write for individuals over age twenty; and whether the person | |||||||||||||||||
| attended school within the previous year. No relationships were shown between members of a | |||||||||||||||||
| household. The categories allowed Congress to determine persons residing in the United States | |||||||||||||||||
| for collection of taxes and the appropriation of seats in the House of Representatives. | |||||||||||||||||
| The 1850 Census includes the following states and territories: Alabama, Arkansas, California, | |||||||||||||||||
| Connecticut, Delaware, District of Columbia, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, | |||||||||||||||||
| Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota Territory (includes Dakota area), | |||||||||||||||||
| Mississippi, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico Territory (includes Arizona area), | |||||||||||||||||
| New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oregon Territory (includes Washington and Idaho areas), | |||||||||||||||||
| Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah Territory, Vermont, | |||||||||||||||||
| Virginia (includes West Virginia counties), Wisconsin. | |||||||||||||||||
| The official enumeration day of the 1850 census was 1 June 1850. All questions asked were | |||||||||||||||||
| supposed to refer to that date. By 1850, there were a total of thirty-one states in the Union, | |||||||||||||||||
| with Florida, Texas, Iowa, Wisconsin, and California being the latest editions. The four new | |||||||||||||||||
| territories of Oregon, Minnesota, New Mexico, and Utah were also enumerated. There were | |||||||||||||||||
| no substantial state- or district-wide losses. | |||||||||||||||||
