1840 Federal Census Index

The 1840 Census was a Head of Household census only.


This is my index to my census transcription.

As a special note, almost none of the Free Colored Persons listed on the census are listed on this index since most of them were not actually named in the original census. If they were named living in their own household on the original census (and I think there was one family that was), then they are listed here in the index. If you want to find the ones not listed, browse through the census page by page from the links on my main index page. At the bottom of every census page, there is a link that will take you to the next census page that followed.
