In 1820, there is a listed for Josiah Cropper but the count numbers are all zeroed out. The original listing looks to have been 000110-10100. Not sure why the zeroing out unless Mr. Cropper decided to move away with his family during this time or it was just an errant listing. There is another Josiah Cropper household in 1820 Worcester Co. as 110110-20200.
