At the top of the 1850 Census there is a  row of columns indicating specific information requested of each individual in a household.  Below you will find an example of each, and how this information was included in each transcription.

Due to space limitations in the database, columns 10, 11, and 12 were not included in the transcription.  This information is available on the actual census image that you'll be able to view with the included links.
