I'm looking at the 1820 census for Daniel Arterberry. The index says 12 total
whites/slaves, but on the image that row ends with 6. Is this census indexed correctly?
There are no column headers on the image. It looks everyone on this page owned slaves,
but according to Wikipedia (and the library at the University of Virginia) In 1820 the
census recorded 190 slaves in the ENTIRE state; by the 1830 census there were only three.
