1840 Madison Parish, Louisiana census, page 120: Tod R. TERRY, 1 male under 5, 1 male 30 - 40, 1 female 20 - 30. (NOTE FROM RALPH TERRY: Just before Tod R. Terry is Martha BURRELL, 1 male under 5, 1 male 5 - 10, 1 male 20 - 30, 1 female 40 - 50, 3 slaves; immediately after Tod R. Terry's listing is William HILL, 2 males 20 - 30.
