Corrected Census Report of Maryland, 1801

This pamphlet contains a corrected census report of Maryland submitted by Reuben Etting, United States Marshal for the District of Maryland, to President Thomas Jefferson on December 23, 1801. The report includes a transmittal letter from Etting. Etting's appointment to this federal position by Jefferson is noteworthy, as Maryland law at the time prohibited Jews from holding state office.
