1820 PA Bradford Co. Wysox Twp. p. 118A Ln. 12 Henry Strape/Strope 100100-10101-Agriculture
These data indicate:
No. & Sex  Age Class Therefore Born Individuals Inferred
1 male 9 or under 1810-1820 = Son A
1 male 19-25* 1794-1801 = Henry (b. 1796)
1 female 9 or under 1810-1820 = Daughter A
1 female 16-25 1794-1804 = Frances (b. 1796)
1 female 45 or over in or bef. 1775 = Catharine (b. 1764)
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."
