Remarks ___________________________________________________________ This is the 1840 Federal Census Gasconade County, Missouri ___________________________________________________________ Transcriber's Notes: In the "Males age 20 to 29" there is one extra person than the total at the bottom. It is probably an extra mark made along the way but I was not able to figure out the error in my copy. In "Females age 10 to 14" I am missing 2 people. However, no matter how I counted those in that column there just wasn't 2 more marks. Probably too faint for the copy machine to pick up. Please feel free to contact me with questions etc. This is the first time I have done anything beyond my family research.
