The following census data was taken from a transcription made in 1963 by Ralph V. Wood, Jr., of the original records in the collection of the U.S. National Archives and Records Administration [microfilm M-33, roll 72]. Wood's transcripts can be found as item #51532 in the Daughters of the American Revolution Genealogy Library, 1776 D St., NW, Washington, D.C.

            Census data made in this year did not indicate relationships, thus even hired hands and travelers stopping over could have been enumerated as household members.

            Warning! to save space and to preserve the original order of households, "free white" and "free colored" data appear in categories labeled with the same letters; however, the letters have a different meaning for each group of people. Refer to the charts below when interpreting census data for these groups—your interpretation will be *wrong* if you do not use these charts! The 1820 census included data about slaves, and none were enumerated in Hounsfield for that year.

            IMPORTANT: All transcriptions are subject to errors introduced by the people who create them; this means that Wood's transcription may differ from the original in some details, and this online reproduction of Wood's transcription may contain additional variations or errors. When in doubt, always verify transcriptions against the original.
