Creator - Organization Company, government agency, or other organization responsible for creating the item (the publisher should not be listed again here unless the same organization had a role other than that of publisher in sponsoring or creating the map). New York State Subject - Details This subject field describes the amount of detail in a map. For maps: (or layers) included on the map itself. This field might denote that the map includes information about, for example, Mountains, Railroads, Soundings, Elevation, or Population. These are controlled-vocabulary terms developed locally. The cataloger should be generous in assigning these terms -- even if only one canal is visible on the map, it should receive a "Canals" subject in this layer. Some of these terms are less specific than others and may warrant expansion in the Abstract field. For example, the "Businesses" term might be included here while the Abstract notes that the map shows mills and stores. Multiple terms can be used in this field. Saratoga County (N.Y.) Saratoga County (N.Y.) Census -- 1845 Subject - Geographic Library of Congress subject headings. For maps: for major geographic locations depicted on the map, followed, in nearly every case, by the "Maps" genre subheading. (For example, "Saratoga Springs (N.Y.) -- Maps.")

This is the place to introduce keywords and proper names that might be of interest to researchers, but do not warrant a separate subject heading of their own. Inset maps should also be described here, with their full titles given. Whenever historical or explanatory information is available, it should be included here as well. This includes information about items or events that are larger than just the map itself; for example, information about cartographers, a description of the map's historical significance (for example, "This is the first printed map of Saratoga Springs"), notes on the laws leading to a map's creation, descriptions of changes in state or county lines, information about the organization that created the map, how often maps were updated, and information about the map's creation and publication. Many State Archives maps have historical information in the catalog record -- that should be captured in this field. New York State's second Constitution (1821) required a state census starting in 1825 and every ten years after that. Censuses were then taken ever ten years until 1875. The State's copy of these census records were destroyed in a 1911 fire, so books such as this one, recording the residents, origins, activities and religious and educational institutions of the town of Edinburgh (now Edinburg), Saratoga County, are rare and valuable records which offer insight into many aspects of everyday and community life. The Brookside holds the entire book, State of New-York, Census of the State for the Year 1845. Town of Edinburgh, Election Dist. No. (blank), County of Saratoga, Book. No. 1, for 1845.  Shown here are the first set of household entries (in 6 pages, to reveal all 50 questions) as well as the community questions about industry, religion, education, people with disabilities, and businesses (hotels, restaurants, professions) asked of the census taker at the end. While such censues are incredibly informative -- and reveal (for example) expectations that most cloth was made at home, and the principal crops census takrs expected farmers to produce -- they are also challenging.  For example, this census only asked the name of the head of household (usually an adult male) and "persons of color" in the household or family. In terms of place of birth, the census asked how many family members (but not whom) were born in New York state, New England, other US states, Mexico and South America, Great Britain, France, Germany and other parts of Europe. QUESTIONS: The 1845 New York State Census asked questions about households with information about race, class, gender, manufacturing, nationality, education, and more in a family or home, with additional questions in the end about 1845 Name of head of family; number of males in family, including its head, if male; females in family, including its head, if female; males in family subject to militia duty; persons entitled to vote; aliens, not naturalized; paupers; colored not taxed; colored taxed; colored voters; married females under 45; unmarried females between the ages of 16 and 45; unmarried females under 16; marriages in the family during the preceding year; male and female births in family during year; male and female deaths in family during year; family members born in New York State; born in New England; born in any other state of the Union; born in Mexico, or South America; born in Great Britain, or its possessions; born in France; born in Germany; born in other parts of Europe; children between the ages of 5 and 16; children attending common schools; children attending private or select incorporated schools; children attending academies or unincorporated seminaries of learning other than colleges; children attending colleges and universities; family's cloth manufactures, acres of improved land, crops ("agricultural and horticultural statistics") and animals.
