There is no way to distinguish which is the correct spelling. The . . . . . . . . . . . last name in column six appears to be "Mathiwes," but it appears . . . . . . . . . . . to be "Mathwes" in the eighth column. It is possible that the . . . . . . . . . . . i in the first spelling is actually an "e" and that the "e" was . . . . . . . . . . . left out of the second spelling. Therefore, the name is most . . . . . . . . . . . likely "Mathewes." 3 21 Ezry Chapman Ezra Chapman | Francis Marien Francis Marien . 3 22 . . . 21 | . . . 21 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 193 . ========================================= Gallipolis Township Transcribers Remarks: ========================================= The 1800 Census for Gallipolis Township, Washington County, Northwest Territory consists of what appears to be one long page with four columns of names, 2 sets of two columns side-by-side. In fact, it is probably three pages joined together with each page ending with a subtotal of the names on the page. At the top of the first page is the following "certification" of the count: "The number of free male inhabitants of the age of twenty one years within the Township of Gallipolis consists of one Hundred and ninety-three as appears in a Schedule hereunto annexed subsribed by me this tenth day of June 1800 Charles Mills Constable" The "certification" is followed by a one-line header above the four columns of names: "Schedule of the number of free male inhabitants of twenty one years of age within the Township allotted to me. Charles Mills" This is the first of the township lists with the names recorded in only four columns per page. The first column has the following heading: "Names of heads of families in which is found a free male inhabitant of twenty one years of age" The second column has the following heading: "Names of free male In- habitants of twenty one years of age including heads of families who are free males twenty one years" Instead of repeating the full headings for columns three and four, Constable Mills abbreviated them as follows: "Names of heads of families" and "Names of free males" As a result, columns three and four contain three more rows of names than columns one and two. Consequently, in order to make the names in the transcription match up in the same rows as the original, I had to put blanks in the first three rows of the transcription of columns one and two on the original.
