Note to Researcher:
The 1820 US Federal Census is the 4th Census taken in the United States.
It was copied from the actual images taken from the National Archives & Records Admin. Microfilm, M33, 142 Rolls.
This Census was to include the following categories:
*# of Free White Males & Females in age categories: 0-10, 10-16, 16-18 (males),  18-26, 26-45, 45+
* # of  Other Free persons ( not including Indians),
* # of Slaves
* # of Free Persons of Color
Now, some Counties actually had their categories labeled, Gallatin county used the alphabet A-Z, so determining which categories was which... was difficult.  I used other neighboring counties as a reference in the order of Categories used.
In my transcribing, I have Never come across such a difficult read.  This census, because of it's age and the way it was preserved, was very difficult to transcribe.
So, I have transcribed only what I was able to read.  There are quite a few Names unaccounted for.  I apologize.  If anyone has any information regarding this Census, please feel free to contribute!  We are always in appreciation of any help offered, as we are Volunteers ourselves.
Sincere thanks,
Deanna Heneghan
