==Online Federal Censuses==
===Population Schedules===
Starting in 1790, federal population schedules were taken every 10 years in the United States. [[United States Census|'''Click here for more information''']] about federal census records. <br><br>
Arizona was a part of Mexico until the end of the Mexican-American War in 1848, when it was given to the United States as part of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. Therefore, Arizona was not included in census prior to 1850. Additionally, until 1862, Arizona was part of the New Mexico territory.


'''1860 Federal Census--'''Arizona was included in the New Mexico census for 1860.&nbsp;The 1860 residents' names are published along with those listed in the 1864 and 1870 census enumerations ( Family History Library book 979.1 X2pa; film 934829).

== Historical Background  ==
===Existing and Lost Censuses===
*1890 Census was lost for Arizona.
*[[Arizona Censuses Existing and Lost|List of existing and lost federal censuses for Arizona]]


'''1848-1853--'''Mexico ceded the portion of Arizona north of the Gila River to the United States. This became part of New Mexico Territory in 1850.&nbsp; In 1853, The Gadsden Purchase added the area south of Gila.  
==Online State and Territorial Censuses==
State censuses are census records that were taken at the state-level rather than at the federal. Often, but not always, a state took their census in ten year increments 5 years from when the Federal Census was taken, such as 1885. State censuses can even serve as substitutes for missing federal censuses. For more information on state censuses, visit [https://www.census.gov/history/www/genealogy/other_resources/state_censuses.html United States Census Bureau].<br><br>
Territorial censuses were taken by the federal government to count the population in federal territories. The government needed to count the population in the territory to see if it could qualify for statehood. For more information on territorial censuses, visit the [[United States Census Territorial|US Territorial Census page]].<br><br>
