REPORTS
1830-1920
===============
UPDATED JULY 27,
2021
I'm
not certain exactly what happened, but the 1790, 1800, 1810, and 1820 Federal Census
stuff for New Jersey just up and disappeared. The first news we get from the
Jersey Shore begins with the 1830 census.
In the
1830 and 1840 census both males and females are listed 0-4, 5-9, 10- 14, 15-19,
20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, etc.
From 1850
on ages and states of birth are shown. Starting in 1880 places of birth are
listed for the person, their father and their mother. In the 1900 and 1920
Soundex, all families are listed. I was able to get the indexes for 1910 and
1930 so they are very complete, listing occupations and length of time married.

know Andrew Wilkins Putnam was born right here. Then there is listed James H.

is David Randolph Putnam, son of John Davis Putnam, who I think has died.
CLARINDA PUTMAN West Newark, Essex County
She
is a spinster daughter of Miles and Martha Putnam. She is 50 NJ and lives with
her sister Rachel Ann 31 NJ and her husband David Morris. If you remember back

who Rebecca is. He is a son of Miles Putnam and Martha Davis and was born in

He is 19 West Indies born Jul 1881, and is listed as a stepson of Frederick (50 Germany) and Addea (39 West Indies) Grunwald. He could somehow be connected to Fernando Cortez Putnam. Fernando was married (his second) to Addah Husband who would be 72 now and is living with her son William in the State of Washington. But this is strange to have Alonzo’s mom named Addea. I really wonder if Addea was a child of Fernando, though was never in the censuses, who remained in the West Indies. Alonzo was born in the West Indies at a time when Fernando had been here in the States for many years. Very interesting. Hmmm.

He is Jeremiah's son and the age is 38 This is an example where they went back later and added the year of birth. The initial listing had age and month, so if they read the age wrong, they put in the wrong year. Happened all the time. Now if you look at 1910 and 1920, you’ll see the Charles and Frank listed here have the last name Brown and would be Anna’s from an earlier marriage. Sadie is probably a sister or cousin I guess. I guess William’s middle name is Voohus or Vorris and their son is William junior.
