State and colonial census records are almost as important as the federal census to family historians, but their random availability makes them an often over looked resource by American genealogists. State and colonial census records not only stand as substitutes for some of the missing federal census schedules (most notably the 1890 federal census), but also as valuable resources in their own right. Many state and colonial censuses, for example, asked different questions than the federal census, so they record information that cannot be found elsewhere in federal schedules.

While not all states took their own censuses, and some have not survived, state and local census records can be found in many locations. Most states which took censuses usually did so every ten years, on the five year mark (1855, 1865, 1875, etc.), to complement the US federal census, and these records are most often found at the state archives or state library.

Griffith's Valuation 1847-1864

Last name  First name 

The The Origins Network have partnered with Ireland's best family history research and publishing company, Eneclann Ltd and The National Library of Ireland to make available the most complete Griffith's Primary Valuation of Ireland.

Because most of the census records for the nineteenth century were destroyed in 1922, when the Public Records Office was burned down, Griffith's Valuation represents the most comprehensive survey of households available for the period. For this reason, it is a principal tool of genealogists and local historians.

Unlike previous attempts to index or publish Griffith's Valuation, this will be the first time the entire survey has been published since it was originally issued in the 19th century. This edition contains all the original publications, revisions and amended versions that were published over the 17 years it took to complete the valuation. No library in any country in the world, including Ireland, has a full set of Griffith's Valuation. So for the first time users of the new web edition can be sure that they have all the source material at hand in one place. Users are to search a complete database of personal and place names, and then access scanned images of the original published pages.

These records and more can be found on the The Origins Network
