Richmond County, Virginia 1810 Census by John Vogt

John Vogt's transcription of the Richmond County, Virginia 1810 Census, from the original images.

Illustrations, maps, full name index.

This is the first surviving census for Richmond County, since both the 1790 and 1800 censuses have been lost. The transcription is in its sequential original order as the enumerator traveled from home to home recording the statistics. Richmond was one of the early settlements in the Northern Neck in the late seventeenth century and it has been the scene of numerous historic events.

This and other 1810 censuses are transcribed by the author from the original images, and while many of Virginia's censuses are available online, they oftentimes are replete with misreadings. Caveat emptor!
