The location of William Allum, ca 1754-1840, before he appeared in the 1790 census in Washington County, PENNSYLVANIA has been documented as MARYLAND. Because a westward migration after the Civil War beckoned some of our ancestors to venture from Washington and Greene counties, PA to Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Nebraska, South Dakota, Kansas, Missouri, Montana--even to California--census citations within these pages capture their locations and relocations at ten-year intervals through the most recently-released 1930 Federal census.
