1820 VA Shenandoah Co. Isabella Furnace Roll M33_138 p. 28/163B Ln. 12 George Stroup 000100-00101-0-100 no slaves

These data indicate:

No. & Sex Age Class Therefore Born Individuals Inferred

1 male 19-25* 1794-1801 = George

1 female 16-25 1794-1804 = Sister Catharine

1 female 45 or over in or bef. 1775 = Anna Maria (b. ca. 1747)

1 person engaged in agriculture

*In the 1820 Census, the third column is age class 16-18 and the fourth column is age class 16-25; therefore, any individual in column three is duplicated in column four. By subtracting the number in column three from the number in column four, you can create an age class "19-25."

George is old enough to be married, so the young female may be a prior wife, but his sister, Catharine, didn't marry until 1825, so it's probably she. Listed next to George's brother, Henry STROOP.
