1850 CENSUS - NEWBURYPORT, MA (Analysis)
NEWBURYPORT - Butcher, Baker, Candlestick Maker;
Occupations in Newburyport, Massachusetts from the 1850
Census

In 1850 Newburyport, the largest number of immigrants
(1/3) came from Ireland but many came from England and
Scotland as well, bringing with them skills and
occupations like weaver, carpenter, shoemaker and
mariner. Newburyport was a bustling area thanks in part
to the shipyards along the Merrimac River and the
import of exotic goods. Many books have been written
about the area but little is known about the workers in
the city and their impact on Newburyport. The place of
birth of all residents born outside of MA (to
demonstrate migration patterns) and the occupations of
all of its residents (to demonstrate diversity of
skills) are examined using data from the 1850 Federal
Census for Newburyport.
There are over 4,800 individuals listed in this book.
Abstracted information includes name, age, sex,
occupation, color, place of birth, household and
dwelling number and the area within Newburyport. The
appendix lists men who went to CA, (1850 Newburyport
City Directory) appendix, surname plus occupation and
place of birth indices.
