Territorial and state censuses were taken at frequent intervals between 1792 and 1880 for various counties. Few are complete and the information in the censuses varies. For example, maiden names are included in the 1792 census. These censuses are available online in Mississippi State Archives, Various Records, 1820-1951, as well as onsite at the Mississippi Department of Archives and History and at the Family History Library (FHL 899868-870]).
