Census Data
Census records are a useful source of information for the genealogist. The Census Indexes list individuals by town/village, showing names, ages, and places of birth - but do not necessarily group families together. However, copies of the original Census enumerators' sheets provide details for each individual household, often revealing complete families (sometimes spanning several generations) with their full names, relationships, ages, professions, and places of birth. Census details for Great Britain are not generally available for inspection by the public for 100 years.

* The number of Ellertons listed in each Census covers England, Wales, Scotland, and the Isle of Man - and also includes a number that I have found were mis-spelt by the enumerators. I have compiled full listings in Excel format for anyone interested.
