Tennessee Census - 1830, 1840, and 1850

The 1830, 1840, and 1850 Tennessee Censuses cover the period of time that Valentine Felty Vanhooser, Jr., son, Mathias Van Huss and his son Valentine Worley Van Huss lived in Carter County Tennessee. Old man Valentine died in 1857. Mathias died in 1856, before the outbreak of the Civil War.  Grandson Valentine Worley Van Huss emigrated to Kansas after the Civil War with his sons James, Daniel, Isaac, and John Finley.

The earlier censuses for the years 1800 through 1830 have been destroyed. They would have covered the period from when Valentine arrived in 1795 and settled near Watauga, Tennessee. I am not aware of the whereabouts for the 1860 census. I have not found Valentine Felty Vanhooser, Jr. in any Tennessee census.
