AUGUSTA COUNTY:
Highest Personal Estate Values Relative to Farming
The calculation of "sixty percent" was derived from the numbers below. The list of individuals is an excerpt from the 1860 Augusta County Population Census revealing all citizens with a personal estate value greater than $10,000. The farmers have been highlighted in red for immediate identification. One hundred and forty-nine of the two hundred and fifty-six individuals worth over $10,000 in Augusta farmed for a living. Thus, the discussed percentage of "sixty percent" is actually (149/256)*100%, or 58.2031%.
