[3]Pennsylvania, like several other states, sometimes conducted a state census and then re-apportioned Assembly districts. In 1815, Columbia, Union, and Northumberland, which had voted together from 1812-1814, were given their own Assembly members. Columbia elected one member, while Northumberland and Union each chose two members.
[4]John Maclay was a candidate listed in the September 29th issue of the Northumberl. Republicaner, und Northumberland, Union und Columbia Counties Adverteiser (Sunbury, PA) but returns for him were not reported in the October 20th issue. It is most likely that he declined election, and was replaced by John Brobst.
