== Why use census records? ==
==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>
Nebraska was the 37th State to join the Union on March 1, 1867. The State was formed from the Nebraska Territory. It was first included on the 1860 U.S. Census as a territory.

Censuses are the basic records used for identifying your ancestors. The records give the places where your ancestors lived, dates and places of birth, and family members. You can also locate neighbors' names, learn about immigration, and other information. Many censuses are indexed and these indexes and images&nbsp;can be&nbsp;found&nbsp;on the Internet. This is the easiest way to&nbsp;find information about&nbsp;your ancestors.  
===Non-Population Schedules for Nebraska===
 
Federal non-population schedules included such things mortality schedules, agriculture schedules, slave schedules, and manufacturing schedules.

==== Sources and Notes  ====
==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>
{{reflist}}<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>

'''1885''' The Federal Government took a special census of Nebraska, which is on 56 microfilms at the Family History Library and at the Nebraska State Historical Society.
