http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/17560618

Population figures from 1790 for the Massachusetts towns of Chilmark, Edgartown, and Tisbury in Dukes County and for the town of Sherburn (now Nantucket) in Nantucket County. These figures, compiled by Joseph Thomas, are registered on a family-by-family basis and then divided by categories: free white females, all other free persons, and slaves. For the town of Sherburn, there is a separate list of free black families which is not included in the official 1790 census.
