Pennsylvania was established as the 2nd state in 1787. The population in 1790 was 434, 373. Pennsylvania had 183 Chapmans in 1790. Fifty seven of them were males age 16 or above, 46 males under 16, 89 females and no other free or slaves. In Philadelphia there is an entry with all zeros for a Henry Chapman. That is not an mistake. It appears in the published 1790 census with lines straight across - no numbers. He is listed as (Gen*). There is a superscript that is not legible.
Explanation for Census Headings:The number at the left of the name is just a number assigned for our reference. It's the Chapman Number. If you need to write about an entry that is the best identifier. After the name the first two columns are males subjects- age 16 and above or less than 16. The third column is a count of the females regardless of age. The fourth column labeled is for other free subjects. The third to last column is for a count of slaves and the next column is total white persons. The last number is the census page number and finally there is a township or district when appropriate.
