Do you have 'Blended Families' or "Multicultural Families" in your ancestry?

Tobias Cutler's page of Stratham, Rockingham County, NH has been updated.

Have updated the 1790 Census site with much info on London Dailey of Exeter, NH with info from his Revolutionary Pension records. Also, have found and uploaded http://sites.google.com/site/1790censusotherfreepersons/home/rockingham-county---new-hampshire-1/exeter-maps taken from the book "History of Exeter, NH," by Charles Henry Bell 1888. The maps are cadastral (property owner) maps that were done by Phineas Merrill in 1802. Some of the people of color are located on the maps, but I haven't had a chance to really scrutinize closely.

That would be great, Michael!! I will send you the excel spreadsheet to your email address and, when it is ready you can send to me to upload to the site. In the meatime I will add you to the site as a collaberator.

Yes, I guess New Jersey is missing from Ancestry too.

The only explanation I saw was the quote I copy/pasted from the Ancestry site in one of my earlier comments.

Here is a map of the thirteen colonies and their years they were founded.

Isn't New Jersey missing on Ancestry, too?

Did Ancestry say which two are missing and what happened to them? I looked at Ancestry as well and only saw 11 just as you did. No explanation, however.

The original thirteen colonies were Connecticut, Delaware, Georgia, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, South Carolina, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and Virginia

So don't see Delaware or Georgia listed for the census.gov site and Virginia, Delaware and Georgia are missing from the Ancestry.com site

You're right, Joann. I just went to Ancestry site and according to them:

"The jurisdiction of the original thirteen states canvassed an area of seventeen present states. Schedules survive for eleven of the thirteen original states: Connecticut, Maine (part of Massachusetts at the time), Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, and Vermont. (Vermont became the fourteenth state early in 1791 and was included in the census schedules)."

So I don't see the Virginia one listed here for Ancestry but it is listed for the census.gov site.

I went to the website for the census, and notice there are only 12 states there. Which one is missing other than Delaware? Is it New Jersey? Am I correct that the censuses for those states for 1790 are missing?
