The population lists  which are of paramount importance to the genealogist  include poll lists  tax lists  taxables  militia lists  and censuses  and were originally drawn up for purposes of taxation and local defense. Gleaned from archives in Britain and the U.S. and from a wide range of published sources  their itemization in this work puts colonial population records in a handy framework for research  much like Ann Lainharts work on post-colonial population records below. Coverage  by the way  isnt confined merely to the original thirteen colonies  but includes population lists from territories such as the Illinois Country  Kentucky and Tennessee  and the northern and southern Indian Departments.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45960320254005,"sku":"ByrdShop_0806313773","price":42.48,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780806313771.jpg?v=1788284823","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/american-population-before-the-federal-census-of-1790-9780806313771","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
