NOTE

This profile used to state that its subject Solomon Sparks was a son of Solomon Sparks Sr. and his wife Sarah of Wilkes Co., North Carolina. That was a mistake; I adopted the profile because I wanted to supply Solomon Sr. with the appropriate son named Solomon Jr., who also lived in North Carolina. I can provide no other information for this current profile, which should be taken over by someone who knows who this Pennsylvania Sparks person really was.

    The septennial censuses listed all state residents who were eligible to be taxed. Early records might provide only name, county, and township. Women did not typically appear, though some are listed as “Widow” with their late husband’s name. As the years went on, the forms collected additional data, and you may find ages, occupations, and gender recorded, as well as women’s first names. Beginning in 1800 forms began listing the names, ages, and gender of slaves. Data on deaf, dumb, and blind residents may also be included on later forms as well.
