*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."

The male in his 20s is too old to be our subject's child; he could be other kin, hired help, or a boarder.  The list is alphabetical, so no neighborhood reconstruction is possible.

No male or female born 1810-20 was in the household in 1820, so they cannot be our subjects' children; they could be other kin, hired help, or boarders.

On the motion of Joseph Hopson ordered that Jesse Mann (Maun?) and Reuben Maun be bound as an apprentice to Col. Joseph Hopson until they arrive to the full age of 21 years and that said Joseph Hopson enter into an indenture with the clerk of this Court against the next term, Jesse Maun is now about years old and Reubin Maun is about nine years old.
I didn't leave out Jesse's age, it wasn't in the book.  Is this the same Jesse, the subject of this page who marries just five years later?
