A census is a count and description of the population of a country, territory, state, county, or city. A well-indexed census is one of the easiest ways to locate the specific places your ancestors lived and to identify the dates they lived there. You can also find excellent family information, particularly in more recent censuses. Use the censuses with caution, however, since the information may have been given to a census taker by any member of the family or by a neighbor. | A census is a count and description of the population of a country, territory, state, county, or city.
