FCP = free colored person

*"Free Colored" was used as a category on the 1790 through 1840 census (actually listed as "Other" in 1790). "Free Colored" could mean almost anything. The census taker used his own discretion to determine who fit in this category, so it is hard to say what the dividing line was between "White" and "Colored" in his mind. A "Free Colored" person could be a black person who was not a slave, or it could be person who had some black blood and some white blood, or it could be someone of some other origin, but who had dark skin or in some other way did not fit the census takers idea of what "white" was.

*You will not find Indians listed on the 1790 through 1840 census, though you might find some who were only part-Indian. If they were listed at all in those years, they would be in either the "White" columns, or in the "Free Colored" columns.
