Illinois Census Returns: 1810 and 1818 by Margaret Cross Norton

The 1818 census makes up the bulk of this work, listing over 4,000 heads of families. For each household is shown the number of free white males over twenty-one, all other white inhabitants, free persons of color, and servants or slaves. What has survived from the 1810 census is given here in full--some 1,310 heads of families, with similar particulars on their households. In all this work touches on 27,000 inhabitants of the Illinois Territory.
