Maryland made in '''1778''' a list of citizens who had taken an oath of fidelity which list is sometimes called a census.
 
Maryland took a census in '''1776''':

==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>


=== Why use a census?  ===
Although Massachusetts conducted a census up to 1975, the 1855 and 1865 censuses are the only two surviving schedules.<ref>[https://www.sec.state.ma.us/arc/arcgen/genidx.htm#census Researching Your Family’s History at the Massachusetts Archives]</ref><br>
 
{| class="wikitable" width= flexible="display: inline-table;"
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.

:*index searching tips
:*analyzing and using what you find
:*census accuracy
:*historical background
:*contents of various&nbsp;census years and types
 
=== External sites  ===
 
Many censuses and indexes&nbsp;are on free sites, others are at paid sites.&nbsp;Some&nbsp;may have access through library membership, and other are personal paid sites. Some sites have partial censuses and others major fee sites have the whole series,&nbsp;with&nbsp;indexes and links to images. Online indexes are searchable in different ways, see tips if you are having difficulties locating your family.

==Why Use the Census?==
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:

*Street or Avenue, or number Rural Free Delivery
*Sex
*Age
*Color
*Nativity
*Place of birth of this person
*Place of birth of Father of this person
*Place of birth of Mother of this person
*Period of Residence
*How long a resident of this State (years and months)
*How long a resident of this enumeration district (years and months)
*Regular occupation
*Military service
