At the top of the page is the following "certification" of the count: "Return of the enumeration of free male inhabitants of the age of twenty one years within the Township of Adams which consists of eighty three appears by a schedule hereunto annexed for the inspection of all concerned. Subscribed by me this twelfth day of June Eighteen Hundred John Russell, Constable" The "certification" is followed by a one-line header above the six columns of names: "Schedule of the number of free male inhabitants of twenty one years of age within the Township of Adams" Thanks to Constable Russell's good hand-writing, by comparison with the lists from some of the other townships, the enumeration for the Township of Adams is fairly legible.
