Greene
County Federal Census of 1800
The following data was transcribed
by Jan Slater. She writes, "Attached is a
file of what I transcribed from the general census of Greene Co. PA for
1800 all persons of color, Free and Slave.
I find that there were:
16 Slaves claimed by various named owners
27 FPOC living in 14 white households
23 FPOC in 6 households head of household is FPOC
This differs from your 1800 Septennial census of 19 Slaves which could be attributed
to births between June and November. Or it could just be that not everyone listed
their slaves.
