Schenectady County, New York Federal Census Schedules: 1790 Name Index

This page conforms to the XHTML standard and uses style sheets. If your browser doesn't support these, you may not see the page as designed, but all the text is still accessible to you.

This index contains the head of family name from the census. Each name is linked to the file containing all the original information from the census schedules.

In order to minimize the confusion caused by variant spellings and spacing, the normal sorting order has been modified. Names are filed without regard to case, spacing or punctuation, Mac and Mc are filed together as Mac, and names beginning with St. are under Saint.

The names are followed by the abbreviations for the Town of Duanesburg, Town of Schenectady (i.e., what later became the Town of Glenville) and Schenectady South of the Mohawk (later City of Schenectady, Town of Rotterdam and Town of Princetown).

Some of the original 1790 Schenectady census records suffered severe damage. The parts of the entries which could not be deciphered are marked with an asterisk.
