John Vogt's transcription of the Augusta County, Virginia 1810 Census, from the original images.

Illustrations, map, arranged by rough alpha letter, full name index.

The census includes separate lists for the rural county census as well as the communities of Staunton, Waynesboro, Greenville, and Middlebrook.

Census returns are some of the first records that a genealogist turns to when studying a new family line. Unfortunately for Augusta County, as well as Virginia as a whole, both the 1790 and 1800 census reports for that state are lost. While the reason for their loss is argued, they nevertheless no longer exist. While personal property tax and land tax lists (which date from 1782) can be used to give some information about individuals, they do not give the researcher a glimpse into family composition or a snapshot of the county as a whole. Hence Augusta’s 1810 census is the first real window we have from the census records of this county which had been first settled in the early eighteenth century and whose original boundaries once stretched beyond the Ohio River.

With the advent of the computer age and the publication of most of these early censuses, one would expect that many of the genealogist’s problems would be resolved. Unfortunately, this has not happened. While many researchers rely completely upon online census records, these are often flawed by misread names and missing names altogether. The problem is the difficult reading of the documents, which often are written in a tight, cramped hand and with a myriad of possible readings. The close similarity between “S’ and “L,” “F” and “T”, and recognizing the secretarial s, which appears as “ss” in the middle of words but not as an ending, can lead to nightmares in translation. Oftentimes, there is no distinction between an “e”, an “o”, and an “a” unless the reader is familiar with the family names within the document. These are only a few visual issues facing the transcriber.

The author has been fortunate to have a professional background in paleography and history, both medieval and modern. In transcribing the current volume, comparison was made with other documents, as well as carefully examining each questionable character under magnification to ascertain the true intent of the writer. In the process, it became apparent that sometimes the census recorder himself was not familiar with strange-sounding German names or heavy Scottish brogues. One spelling would appear in the first encounter with the family, and then later on in the document a different spelling would be given for the same family surname. In brief, computerized lists, while useful, do not give a total and accurate picture of the data. The census was recorded on one hundred folios in a small script, and herein lies the problem with “a”, “e” and “o” in the body of a name. Only by carefully examining the transitions between characters can an accurate reading be obtained.

This and other 1810 censuses are transcribed by the author from the original images, and while many of Virginia's censuses are available online, they oftentimes are replete with misreadings. Caveat emptor!

Too comfy and adorable 🤩
These socks are super soft and comfy, so cozy. These are the best feel good socks. The material is medium thick, so soft and fluffy. You may find a couple of fluff pieces here and there in your bed or floor after a while. They're still great socks to enjoy and lounge around in. I would suggest turning them inside out when you wash them. A good price for them too.

Soft fluffy socks for a comfortable sleep
Style: 1 Pair, Color: Men's Heather Charcoal, Style: 1 Pair, Color: Men's Heather Charcoal
I am a woman with size 8.5 or 9 feet. I purchased the heather (salt and pepper) pair of these for men, because I was tired of socks that squeezed my toes together. So these have a few inches of extra space at the toes, which is more comfortable for me, since I got these to sleep in. I am including a photo of these next to my usual too tight socks for comparison. When I took off my usual highly elastic tight socks and put these on I literally breathed a sigh of relief. These will keep my feet warm without being constrained. These are neither thick nor thin, but fluffy and very soft. I suggest that anyone who gets these is careful about taking off the small plastic piece that attaches the two socks together. Don't just yank the two socks apart, use some scissors to carefully remove that little piece. Also I suggest hand washing these. Recommended for those of us ladies who are tired of socks that squeeze their toes, for sleeping, and around the house.
