Olney & the Hamlet of Warrington - 1821 Census

The first census for the whole of Britain (excluding Ireland) was taken in 1801 and thereafter every ten years, but up to 1841 they were purely statistical - individual names not being required.  However, some enumerators made up their own lists which sometimes survive amongst individual parish documents.  This transcription is of one such documents which gives not only the name of the head of each household but also his trade or profession, the number of males and females in his household (subdivided into age groups), the street in which he lived and his religious persuasion.
