1. History or militias
as described in the article is accurate. Town records from New England include militia lists, upon which all males above the age of 16 were listed. If they were unfit for duty due to age or disability, this was noted.

The early censuses *1790-1840) broke down the population by gender and race, mainly so that the number of men available for militia duty could be counted.
