1790 North Carolina Census and Tax List Data

The 1790 census schedules that have survived were published originally by the Bureau of the Census, Heads of Families at the First Census of the United States Taken in the Year 1790, 12 vols. (Washington, D.C.: Government Printing Office, 1908). Many of those volumes have been reprinted by private publishers. All of the surviving schedules have been microfilmed and can be used at the National Archives and its Regional Centers, the LDS Family History Library and it centers, and many state, local, and institutional libraries throughout the nation.

When using a census that names only the head of a household, search other records to corroborate what appears to be a family in the census. Households could include grandparents, uncles, aunts, more distant relatives, boarders, hired hands, friends, or any combination of people.

The following heads-of-household records were extracted from a number of sources...census data, tax lists, etc. Note that they almost certainly do not account for every person with these surnames. Some counties were more diligent about collecting and preserving data than others. Also, the list may also omit persons who were of no interest to the genealogist who compiled this report.

The column aa-bb-cc-dd-ee either contains the number of persons in the household (for 1790 census records) or shows the source of the record (tax list).

aa = Free white males over 16 including heads of families
bb = Free white males under 16
cc = Free white females including heads of families
dd = All other free persons
ee = Slaves
