    HISTORY OF MILFORD
    1836
    November 30, died Daniel Smith, aged ninety-one years. He came from Haverhill, Mass., as early as 1770, and located in the south-westerly part of town, near the Benjamin Shedd place. His son, Ezekiel, for a time lived upon the paternal farm, and was succeeded by his son, Daniel, who occupied the homestead for a time, but before his death became the owner of the Benjamin Shedd farm, upon which one of his daughters now resides.

    Enumerators of the 1820 census were asked to include the following categories in the census: name of head of household, number of free white males and females in age categories: 0 to 10, 10 to 16, 16 to 26, 26 to 45, 45 and older; number of other free persons except Indians not taxed; number of slaves; and town or district and county of residence. Additionally, the 1820 census for the first time asked the number of free white males 16 to 18; number of persons to be naturalized; number engaged in agriculture, commercial, or manufacture; number of "colored" persons (sometimes in age categories); and number of other persons except Indians. The categories allowed Congress to determine persons residing in the United States for collection of taxes and the appropriation of seats in the House of Representatives. Most entries are arranged in the order of visitation, but some have been rearranged to appear in alphabetical order by initial letter of the surname. Manufacturing schedules are scattered among the 1820 population schedules.

    DANIEL SMITH was a Revolutionary soldier. After the close of the war he married and settled in Amherst; thence, after some years, he removed, with his family, to Vermont.

    (Some of this information is incorrect. Daniel Smith married Ruhammah Cutter in 1769, before the war. I don't believe he moved to Vermont. He died in Milford, NH in 1836.)
