Items of note:

  • Why aren't all John Youngman's children listed on the census counts for 1790, 1800 and 1810?

    • Moses Youngman (1792 - ?)
    • Mary Youngman (1795 - ?)
    • Nicholas Youngman (1797 - 1859)
    • Sarah Youngman (? - ?)

 1790 U.S. Census

Free White Males 16 and up including head: 1  (John Youngman)
Males under 16: 1  (? John Youngman Jr ?)
Free white females including head: 1  (Abigail (?) Youngman)

1800 U.S. Census

Head of Family: John Youngman in Barnet, VT
Free White Males 16 and up including head: 1  (John Youngman)
Males under 16: ?
Free white females including head: ?
All other persons: ?

The John Youngman entry is the last entry on Page 6 after Willm Warden (the list is sorted alphbetically by last name). The entry was not transcribed by either Ancestry.com or FamilySearch.org. 

You can make out the 'Y', 'g', and 'J' from 'Yxxxgxx Jxxx" as they dip below the other letters. 

A problem is that you cannot see any tick-marks for what family members were actually counted. An alternative way though is that if you add up the page totals it shows there are 2 missing persons counts from this page.

Page totals :
 Males: 175 + 68 + 75 + 81 +71 = 470
 Females: 139 + 66 + 48 + 91 + 43 = 387
Other Free Persons: 1
------------------------------------------------------------------

Total = 858

But the handwritten page total reads: 'Total 860'

So difference is: 860 - 858 = 2 persons

These 2 missing counts that could be John and Abigail Youngman [Abigail or a possibly a 2nd wife as there is a female >= 45 marked on the 1810 census]
