About This Item
1862 1ed SLAVE Census DATA Indians Confederacy Civil War Steel Industry
The 'Preliminary Report on the Eighth Census' is the last census report to show slavery data. Interestingly, since the preceding Census of the U.S. (1850) added every member of the household including women, children and slaves, Kennedy added also American Indians if they had renounced tribal rules. Particularly are the government discussions on disabilities of blindness, idiocy, and the major diseases at the time.
This 1862 edition of Kennedy's census report includes topics such as:
· Growth of New York with an added population of 783,000 to Virginia where the population had gone down by 17% for the white population (and 3.88% of the slave population)
· Indian slavery
· Manumission
· Fugitive slaves
· Mortality rates and notes the rates of both whites and slaves
· Various disabilities including the deaf and dumb as well as the blind
· Growth of various asylums for the insane both by the Federal government and the various states
· Steel industries
· Growth of the printing press
· Sewing Machines
· Growth of the cotton and oil industries
· And many more!!!
