The 1818 census makes up the bulk of this work, listing over 4,000 heads of families. For each household is shown the number of free white males over twenty-one, all other white inhabitants, free persons of color, and servants or slaves. What has survived from the 1810 census is given here in full--some 1,310 heads of families, with similar particulars on their households. In all this work touches on 27,000 inhabitants of the Illinois Territory.
