1840 Federal Census Abstracts

Enumerators of the 1840 census were asked to include the following categories in the census: name of head of household, number of free white males and females in age categories: 0 to 5, 5 to 10, 10 to 15, 15 to 20, 20 to 30, 30 to 40, 40 to 50, 50 to 60, 60 to 70, 70 to 80, 80 to 90, 90 to 100, over 100; the name of a slave owner and the number of slaves owned by that person; the number of male and female slaves by age categories; the number of foreigners (not naturalized) in a household; and the number of deaf, dumb and blind persons within a household. Additionally, the 1840 census asked for the first time the ages of revolutionary war pensioners, as well as the number of persons attending school. The official enumeration day of the 1840 census was 1 June 1840. All questions asked were supposed to refer to that date. By 1840, there were a total of twenty-six states in the Union, with Arkansas and Michigan being the latest editions. The two new territories of Wisconsin and Iowa were also enumerated. There were no substantial state or district wide losses.
