The names of the heads-of-households, as reported on this census, are found below.  They are arranged, in alphabetical order, by surname.  Following the names are a series of numbers which represent the entries reported in the respective columns for the household.  The order of the columns (and numbers reported) are shown in the order in which they appear.

Please note:  Though a column for the number of "slaves" was included among the U. S. Census questions, some of the Vermont towns/townships apparently chose NOT to include a column for "slaves."  When this column was not included on the census pages, the column order below will be "missing" this column as well.  Also, for the towns which did not include this column, the names will be followed by 1 less number.

Note 1:  The census pages for Addison County did not include a column for "Slaves."
Note 2:  The microfimed census pages for Addison County appear to have been originally contained on one very wide page which has been torn or cut (down the middle of a column of entries), dividing the page into two separate pages.  The first page is marked # 310, and the second page is not marked, so will be referred to as # 311 in this index.
