===Population Schedules===
Virginia became the tenth state admitted to the United States in June 25, 1788. Starting in 1790, federal population schedules were taken every 10 years in the United States. However, the 1790 Census for Virginia was lost. In 1800, only the counties, Accomack<ref>Available on microfilm at the Library of Virginia: Census Population Schedule: Virginia, Accomack County, 1800. Misc. Reel 293.</ref> and [https://thacker152.rssing.com/chan-59986646/all_p1.html Louisa] have census records that exist. They are not included in the regular 1800 Census databases. The 1810 Census enumeration for Virginia is missing the following counties: Grayson, Greenbrier, Halifax, Hardy, Henry, James City, King William, Lee, Louisa, Mecklenburg, Nansemond, Northampton, Orange, Patrick, Pittsylvania, Russell, Tazewell.<ref>[https://lva-virginia.libguides.com/c.php?g=1211995&p=8863906#:~:text=Missing%20Censuses,-Not%20every%20U.S.&text=The%201790%20federal%20census%20schedules,schedules%20are%20not%20available%20online.

County-wide indexes sometimes help locate names overlooked in statewide indexes. Several county-wide indexes are listed in the Family History Library Catalog Place Search under VIRGINIA, [COUNTY] - CENSUS.
===Existing and Lost Censuses===
*[[Virginia Censuses Existing and Lost|List of existing and lost federal censuses for Virginia]]


When indexes are not available or a name is omitted, you can still look for the name in the census. In large cities it helps to first learn the person's address by searching the city directory under the census year (see the “Directories” section). Then look for that address on the original census schedules.
==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>

'''Colonial Censuses '''
 
In addition to the federal censuses, lists of residents are available for some colonial years. The lists of 1624 and 1787 have been published and are available at the Family History Library. These censuses list only the heads of households. For additional information related to the 1624 census, see the Jester and Hiden book listed in the “Genealogy” section of this outline.

=== Online Sources for census records ===
 
Most online census records can be searched much faster than census records on microfilm, because users can search online without having to know the state where an ancestor lived. Some Web sites only have census indexes. Others contain indexes linked to images of the original census sheets. Census sheets show more data than the indexes.
 
Ancestry at [http://www.ancestry.com/ www.ancestry.com] allows you to search all available years of the censuses by the name of an ancestor. Digitized images of the census pages are also on the site. Ancestry is a subscription site. Many family history centers have a subscription. Contact the center in your area to ask if they do. If you prefer, you can pay for a personal subscription.
 
HeritageQuest Online at [http://www.heritagequestonline.com/ www.heritagequestonline.com/] has indexes and images for most of the census years. It is a subscription site aimed at libraries and institutions. They do not offer personal subscriptions. The way the census was indexed is different from the way Ancestry was indexed. Check with a public or academic library in your area to ask if they have a subscription.
 
FamilySearch at [http://www.familysearch.org/ www.familysearch.org/] has indexes and transcriptions from the 1880 U.S. census. Each entry includes the Family History Library film number, the U.S. National Archives film number, and a page number.

Population Schedules

Virginia became the tenth state admitted to the United States in June 25, 1788. Starting in 1790, federal population schedules were taken every 10 years in the United States. However, the 1790 Census for Virginia was lost. In 1800, only the counties, Accomack[1] and Louisa have census records that exist. They are not included in the regular 1800 Census databases. The 1810 Census enumeration for Virginia is missing the following counties: Grayson, Greenbrier, Halifax, Hardy, Henry, James City, King William, Lee, Louisa, Mecklenburg, Nansemond, Northampton, Orange, Patrick, Pittsylvania, Russell, Tazewell.[2] Click here for more information about federal census records.
