'''National Census''' <br>
Palestine Census Bureau of Statistics includes number of Palestinians in Israel from 1948 to 2017. But those individuals will most likely be recorded in Israeli archives. The Palestinian Census estimates 85-90% coverage. It includes only Palestinians in Palestinian Territories, and does not include foreigners in Palestine, or Palestinians who hold Israeli citizenship.


There were two '''British Censuses''' done. One in 1922 and another in 1931.
Jordan did a census in '''1952''' that included three districts - Hebron, Nablus, and Jerusalem.
In '''1967''' there was an '''Israeli Census'''. This included:
*Name of family/clan
*First Name
*Name of Father and Mother
*Name of Grandfather
*Address
*Passport/Identification Number
*Gender
*Marital Status
*Members of Household
There are also numbers for people exiled.
