Maryland made in '''1778''' a list of citizens who had taken an oath of fidelity which list is sometimes called a census.
 
Maryland took a census in '''1776''':
 
*Gaius Marcus Brumbaugh, ''[http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/11019085&referer=brief_results Maryland Records, Colonial, Revolutionary, County and Church from Original Sources]'', 2 vols. (1915-1928; reprint, Baltimore:Genealogical Publ.,&nbsp;1975) [[http://www.familysearch.org/eng/library/fhlcatalog/supermainframeset.asp?display=titledetails&columns=*%2C0%2C0&titleno=444406&disp=Maryland+records++ FHL book&nbsp;975.2 D29b; fiche&nbsp;6046943]]

=== Why use a census?  ===
 
A well-indexed census is one of the easiest ways to locate where an ancestor's family lived and when they lived there. You can also use censuses to follow the changes in a family over time, and identify neighbors. These and other clues provided by censuses are important because they help find additional kinds of records about the family.
 
=== More about censuses  ===
 
[[United States Census|Click here]] for additional details about how to use censuses, such as:
 
:*index searching tips
:*analyzing and using what you find
:*census accuracy
:*historical background
:*contents of various&nbsp;census years and types
 
=== External sites  ===
 
Many censuses and indexes&nbsp;are on free sites, others are at paid sites.&nbsp;Some&nbsp;may have access through library membership, and other are personal paid sites. Some sites have partial censuses and others major fee sites have the whole series,&nbsp;with&nbsp;indexes and links to images. Online indexes are searchable in different ways, see tips if you are having difficulties locating your family.
 
*[http://pilot.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html#r=0;p=allCollections FamilySearch Record Search] is&nbsp;free site. There are a few census years available now&nbsp;with more being added.

Missing federal censuses[edit | edit source]

Click here for a list of missing and available Maryland federal censuses.


State or other censuses[edit | edit source]

[Colonial territorial, state or other censuses]

Maryland made in 1778 a list of citizens who had taken an oath of fidelity which list is sometimes called a census.

Maryland took a census in 1776:

An online index to both is found in  MARYLAND INDEXES (Census Index) 1776-1778 [MSA S1419].

Why use a census?[edit | edit source]

A well-indexed census is one of the easiest ways to locate where an ancestor's family lived and when they lived there. You can also use censuses to follow the changes in a family over time, and identify neighbors. These and other clues provided by censuses are important because they help find additional kinds of records about the family.

More about censuses[edit | edit source]

Click here for additional details about how to use censuses, such as:

  • index searching tips
  • analyzing and using what you find
  • census accuracy
  • historical background
  • contents of various census years and types

External sites[edit | edit source]

Many censuses and indexes are on free sites, others are at paid sites. Some may have access through library membership, and other are personal paid sites. Some sites have partial censuses and others major fee sites have the whole series, with indexes and links to images. Online indexes are searchable in different ways, see tips if you are having difficulties locating your family.

  • FamilySearch Record Search is free site. There are a few census years available now with more being added. Search the index and view the images. The index is to every name listed on the census. As of June 2009. the years that are indexed and available for Maryland are 1850, 1860, 1870, 1880, and 1900.
  • Maryland State Archives has indexes to the 1776 and 1778 colonial "censuses", also the federal 1870 and 1880. 
  • Ancestry is a large Internet company that has all the Maryland censuses indexed from 1790--1930 by every name. The index is linked to the image as well to an extracted household group with source information. Ancestry is available at many libraries, the Family History Library, and certain Family History centers.You can also purchase your own subscription.
  • Heritage Quest Online is a paid site that has indexes for the 1790–1820, 1860–1880, and 1900–1930. Images for all national censuses are available for browsing, printing, and downloading. Many libraries have subscriptions which allow access for their patrons outside of their library with a library card and password.
  • Census Finder has statewide links to online indexes, then countywide links, including indexes, transcriptions, scanned copies. The links on this site are often difficult to use.
  • Two other websites that have links to other sites are Census Online and Access Genealogy. Some of the addresses are not current.

Footnotes[edit | edit source]

1810-1870--Statewide indexes are available for the censuses in book and microfiche format.
