*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."

There are obviously some additional males in the household who cannot be our subjects' sons.
