==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>
Washington was admitted to the Union as the 42nd state on 11 Nov 1889. However, it appeared in the 1850 Census as Oregon territory and the 1860-1880 Censuses as Washington terrritory.

==== Indexes: fiche, film, or book  ====
==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>


For a list of microform and book indexes for the population schedules of Washington, [[Washington Population Schedule Indexes: Fiche, Film, or Book|click here]]
Washington took a territorial census at various times between 1857 and 1892. These censuses were enumerated by county officials and information collected varies slightly from county to county. Images of these censuses can be viewed in the following FamilySearch Catalog Collections.

State census records can be one of the easiest ways to locate where an ancestor's family lived and when they lived there. Information varies based on year and location, but information that may be included in a census can include:
 
*Name of each person in the family at the time the census was taken
=== Existing and lost censuses  ===
*Street or Avenue, or number Rural Free Delivery
 
*Sex
For a list of available and missing Washington censuses, [[Washington Censuses Existing and Lost|click here]]. <br>
*Age
 
*Color
=== Why use a census? ===
*Nativity
 
*Place of birth of this person
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.
*Place of birth of Father of this person
 
*Place of birth of Mother of this person
=== More about censuses  ===
*Period of Residence
 
*How long a resident of this State (years and months)
