6 September 1790
Updated November 25, 2022
Background
Following an Act of the General Assembly, the voters who voted for the two members to go to Congress are listed in the Cumberland County Deed Book for 1790. Because the first Federal Census was taken in 1790, it is important that researchers have access to those who had the privilege of voting and who used it. The following 264 voted for GILES.
Breaks in the text indicate columns breaks in Cumberland County Historical Bulletin and may not reflect column breaks in the original.
This poll may be used as a partial substitute for the 1790 Cumberland County Census.
