Just 33 days until the release of the 1940 Census!
Today’s census records show Thomas Jefferson. In the 1790 census, he lists his occupation as Secretary of State of the United States. He lived on Market Street in Philadelphia, which was the Capitol at the time.
His 1790, 1810, and 1820 records can be seen on this webpage.

Now that is interesting. Every census I’ve ever seen and indexed were done by census takers, so this is a first for me....

No, it is. That signature is distinctive (and not very neat).
