Report Continued Cumberland County [[8 columned table]] | Number | Name | Age | Condition | Residence | Length of Residence in the County | Amount and character of support to be relied upon by the Civil Authorities | Remarks. | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 1 | Billy Gough | 80 | Infirm & Destitute | Cumberland Co Va | Over 12 mos | The County levy in this County, has not been made yet, in consequence of the Commissioner of the Revenue, not having completed his books - but the state of feeling existing here is pretty much the same as it is in the other Counties. The poor, if left to their own resources would would suffer seriously - But little relief is afforded them from private charity now, and not much, from the County Authorities. | Those in this County, who are being provided for by the Bureau, are scattered over, the Country, generally and although they are known, to the "Overseers of the Poor", yet, I am unable to state the exact locality in which they reside. This in fact, is the case in other counties excepting Prince Edward, Farmville in this County being the residence of a large majority, of the poorer classes. | | 2 | R Dangerfield | 40 | Blind & Destitute | Cumberland Co Va | Over 12 mos | | | | 3 | Andrew Bates | 41 | Paralyzed & Destitute | Cumberland Co Va | Over 12 mos | | | | 4 | Abram Jules | 80 | Infirm & Destitute | Cumberland Co Va | Over 12 mos | | | | 5 | Phil Pryor | 65 | Blind & Destitute | Cumberland Co Va | Over 12 mos | | | | 6 | Hercules Jackson | 76 | Crippled & Destitute | Cumberland Co Va | Over 12 mos | | | | 7 | David Spencer | 85 Infirm & Destitute | Cumberland Co Va | Over 12 mos | | | | 8 | Peter Hobron | 80 | Infirm & Destitute | Cumberland Co Va | Over 12 mos | | | | 9 | Ned Walker | 80 | Infirm & Destitute | Cumberland Co Va | Over 12 mos | | | | 10 | Humphrey Palmer | 80 | Infirm & Destitute | Cumberland Co Va | Over 12 mos | | | | 11 | Becky Baily | 80 | Infirm & Destitute | Cumberland Co Va | Over 12 mos | | | | 12 | Martha Davenport | 65 | Crippled & Destitute | Cumberland Co Va | Over 12 mos | | | | 13 | Betty Hubbard | 85 | Infirm & Destitute | Cumberland Co Va | Over 12 mos | | | | 14 | Catharine James | 60 | Infirm & Destitute | Cumberland Co Va | Over 12 mos | | | | 15 | Matd Carrington | 70 | Infirm & Destitute | Cumberland Co Va | Over 12 mos | | | | 16 | Milly Short | 70 | Infirm & Destitute | Cumberland Co Va | Over 12 mos | | | | 17 | Abby Johns | 90 | Infirm & Destitute | Cumberland Co Va | Over 12 mos | | | | 18 | Nancy Read | 80 | Infirm & Destitute | Cumberland Co Va | Over 12 mos | | | | 19 | Tamos Blanton | 69 | Infirm & Destitute | Cumberland Co Va | Over 12 mos | | | | 20 | Lizzie Wylett | 70 | Infirm & Destitute | Cumberland Co Va | Over 12 mos | | |
