A census has been taken in England and Wales, and separately for Scotland, every ten years since 1801, with the exception of 1941. The first four censuses, 1801
through 1831, were taken strictly for statistical purposes for the Overseers of the Poor and substantial households.
The first census listing people by name was taken in 1841. Census records are generally released 100 years after
they were taken.
