The 21 censuses that have been conducted in Britain since 1801,
have provided an invaluable insight into Britain's social,
political and economic history over the past 200 years. From their
original purpose to assess how many men were fit for military duty
in the Napoleonic wars, to being a necessary tool for determining
government policy, the 10-yearly census return is a fascinating
snapshot of the state of the population on a particular moment in
each decade. The growth of Britain's cities; the movement of
population away from the countryside; the variety of people's
occupations; their way of life; and what religious beliefs they
hold are all contained within the census reports. With the imminent
publication of the 1921 census results, this will prove a useful
introduction, both for those interested in general trends in social
history, and those researching family history.
