The 1803 Cap-Haïtien Census

The 1803 Cap-Haïtien Census

This find seems to be the very last census take of Saint Domingue before the revolt and freedom of 1804. The 1803 Cap-Haïtien Census is one of the last great source for information during this era. Cap-Haïtien had a couple of prior names which includes Cap-Français. To read further on it in English, you review a link that I have provided in the past.

Transatlantic Slave Trade – Cap-Français

While for the English speaker may find reading the 1803 Census a little difficult. I do recommend Google Translate to help you with translating the document. After trying a few, you will get the idea on what each column contains. This is a really good census in helping to find families. This collection is a rarity so enjoy them while you can.

The images start with 161 and end with 310.
