Revolutionary War Pensioners in the 1840 Census |
Like most of the earlier censuses, the 1840 census
listed only the head of the household and the number of people in specific
age groups living within a particular household making it only useful to a
certain degree in genealogy research.
What most people neglect, however, is that the 1840 census listed
revolutionary war soldiers along with their specific ages. Here you will find a list of Revolutionary
war veterans found in old Tishomingo, Itawamba, Pontotoc, and Tippah counties
according to the 1840 census. |
