<quote>1790-1810: The first three census schedules for Georgia are missing, and many believe this to be a result of fire during the War of 1812. Tax lists for various years for a few of the counties have been published in Some Early Tax Digests of Georgia, ed. by Ruth Blair, 2 vols. (Atlanta: Georgia Archives, 1926), and An Index to Georgia Tax Digests, 1789-1817. (Published for the R. J. Taylor Foundation; Spartanburg, SC: Reprint Co., 1986). These can be used as a substitution for the first three census schedules. Additionally, there is Substitute for Georgia's Lost 1790 Census (Albany, Ga.: Delwyn Associates, 1975). Wills, deeds, tax digests, court minutes, voter lists, and newspapers were searched to compile this list.

1820: The 1820 schedules for Franklin, Rabun, and Twiggs Counties are missing. Population Schedules: NARA M33, Rolls 6-10. (Georgia Archives Microfilm #331/1-5); Manufacturing Schedules: (Georgia Archives #331/6)  <unquote>
