Description
SLAVENUM indicates the number of slaves associated with a slave holder.
Codes
This variable is not available for any of the currently selected samples.
Comparability
This variable is comparable between 1850 and 1860.
The construction of SLAVENUM depends on the linking of holdings in the slave schedules to persons listed in the population schedules on the basis of name, with additional consideration of personal property value in 1860. Many holdings are not linked to the population schedules for one reason or another, so this variable understates the number of slaves held by the free population.
