Subject: BRANHAM IN THE VA CENSUS INDEXES
Date: Wed, 18 Jun 1997 18:41:27 -0700

Here are the listings, as found in the indexes for the Virginia census, from 1810 to 1850. As you may or may not know, 1850 census is a real landmark for genealogists because it is the first census to list every one in the household, by first, & often, middle name. Unfortunately, the BRANHAM that I believe to be my ancestor is listed with only initials, as is his wife and 6 of his 8 children. We do have a child named John & one named Wm H. in the home. Somewhere, I got the idea that the E. J. stood for Enos Jacob and that his wife as K. BRAMHAM was Kathleen BROCKMEYER. This was my infant days of research and I do not know where I got those names. For now, they shall remain E. J. BRAMHAM & K. BRAMHAM. ============================================================ 1810 VIRGINIA INDEX BRAMHAM - p. 85 ------------------------------------------------------------ NAME COUNTY PAGEPERSONS IN HOME ------------------------------------------------------------ BRAMHAM, Benjamin RichmondVA 23800001-00100-00 BRAMHAM, James CulpepperVA 7800101-00000-0.27 BRAMHAM, VincentRichmondVA 34812020-10010-00 ------------------------------------------------------------ BRAHAM, James FrederickVA ??100000-00000-20 BRAHAM, James MonongaliaVA 40932001-21010-00 BRAHAM, Thomas MonongaliaVA 40900201-01000-00 ------------------------------------------------------------ BRAHAN, William FauquierVA 24351010-11010-03 ------------------------------------------------------------ BRANCON, VincentCulpepperVA 8300001-01001-00 ------------------------------------------------------------ BRANDHAM, ThomasCulpepperVA 8220100-10010-00 ------------------------------------------------------------ BRANHAM, BenjaminWestmorelandVA 76700001-40100-1.10 BRANHAM, EzekielCulpepperVA 8040010-31010-00 BRANHAM, MarmadukeAlbemarleVA 222110-11011-00 BRANHAM, Nimrod AlbemarleVA 18710110-20010-00 BRANHAM, Reuben ShenandoahVA 1920010-32010-00 BRANHAM, WilliamShenendoahVA 1700110-10020-00 ------------------------------------------------------------ BRANMAW, Thomas RandolphVA 32901001-01111-00 ============================================================ 1820 VIRGINIA INDEX BRAMHAM - p. 20 ------------------------------------------------------------ NAME COPAGETOWN ------------------------------------------------------------ BRAHAM, John WOOD181NO TWP L BRAHAM, Thomas PRES228NO TWP L ------------------------------------------------------------ BRAMHAM, Ludlow LOUI044NO TWP L BRAMHAM, VincentRICH222NO TWP L ------------------------------------------------------------ BRANHAM - p. 20 ------------------------------------------------------------ BRANHAM, Daniel CULP065NO TWP L BRANHAM, FrancisCULP065NO TWP L BRANHAM, GarndishLEWI147NO TWP L BRANHAM, Grace K-GO120HANOVER BRANHAM, James FRED011NO TWP L BRANHAM, James NORF114NO TWP L BRANHAM, Joseph FRED037NO TWP L BRANHAM, MarmadukeALBE037NO TWP L BRANHAM, Nimrod CHES004NO TWP L BRANHAM, Robert FRED045NO TWP L BRANHAM, Thomas SPOT070NO TWP L BRANHAM, WilliamGRBR069LEWISBUR -------------------------------------------------- BRANUM, Ezekiel CULP063NO TWP L BRANUM, Reuben SHEN165ISABELLA ============================================================ 1830 VIRGINIA INDEX BRANHAM - p. 36 -------------------------------------------------- BRALHAM, Thomas LOUN089SHELBURN -------------------------------------------------- BRAMHAM, EbinazerFLUV362NO TWP L BRAMHAM, HastingsLOUI033NO TWP L BRAMHAM, John ALBE231NO TWP L BRAMHAM, Ludlow FLUV363NO TWP L BRAMHAM, Ludlow LOUI005NO TWP L BRAMHAM, Mal LOUI022NO TWP L BRAMHAM, Nat LOUI034NO TWP L BRAMHAM, Nimrod ALBE234NO TWP L BRAMHAM, Nimrod SR.ALBE235NO TWP L BRAMHAM, Philip A.RICH099NO TWP L BRAMHAM, VincentRICH099NO TWP L -------------------------------------------------- BRANAM, Thomas KANA183NO TWP L -------------------------------------------------- BRANHA, Reuben SHEN097NO TWP L -------------------------------------------------- BRANHAM, CreaseyAMHE518NO TWP L BRANHAM, Daniel CULP089NO TWP L BRANHAM, Edward AMHE507NO TWP L BRANHAM, FrancisMASO135NO TWP L BRANHAM, James CARO178NO TWP L BRANHAM, John LOUN107SHELBURN BRANHAM, John CARO179NO TWP L -------------------------------------------------- BRANNAM, John NORF340PORTSMOU ============================================================ 1840 VIRGINIA INDEX BRANHAM - p. 32-33 -------------------------------------------------- BRAMHAM, AndersonALBE100FREDERIC BRAMHAM, John B.LANC126NO TWP L BRAMHAM, Mary C.

Passyage 40 F S.J. 15 F =============================================================== From the fact that TYLER is living right next to BRAMHAM, I infer that this must be the parents of Caroline Anderson BRANHAM. When I looked for E.J. BRAMHAM in the 1850 index, above, I was ot able to locate him. Each line of the two pages, 59 & 60, were checked for Albemarle County, then I went back & looked for anything that miight begin with an E. It is possible that E.J. BRAMHAM is on a page before the above or after. This will take more research. It is not known who the last persons are in the household. The name, Passy, may not be right, but it is my best guess considering the spelling and handwriting. If you have any thoughts, ideas, suggestions, or additions, please let me know and PLEASE SEND IT THROUGH THE LIST.
