Census Records 1810 Census Categories for males & females as follows: 0-10 (b. 1800/10) 10-16 (b. 1794-1800) 16-26 (b. 1784/94) 26-45 (b. 1765/84) 45 & up (b. by 1765) 1820 Census This is the tricky one; males can be counted twice, depending on their age! Any male between 16-18 will be listed again in the 16-26 year bracket. Keep this in mind! Categories are: Males: Born: Females: 0-10 1810/20 0-10 10-16 1804/10 10-16 16-18 1802-1804 (no category) 16-26 1794-1804 16-26 26-45 1775/94 26-45 45 & up by 1775 45 & up 1830 Census Categories for males & females as follows: 0-5 (b. 1825/30) 5-10 (b. 1820/25) 10-15 (b. 1815/20) 15-20 (b. 1810/15) 20-30 (b. 1800/10) 30-40 (b. 1790-1800) 40-50 (b. 1780/90) 50-60 (b. 1770/80) 60-70 (b. 1760/70) 70-80 (b. 1750/60) 80-90 (b. 1740/50) 90-100 (b. 1730/40) 100 + (b. by 1730) 1840 Census Categories for males & females are the same as the 1830 census, but remember to adjust the year they were born. For instance, age 0-5 were born 1835/40), age 100+ were born by 1740. This census has an added column for Revolutionary War pensioners and their ages. 1850 Census This is the first census which lists each member of the household by name, age, and birthplace, sex and color. 1880 Soundex Census This census lists ONLY families with children under the age of 10 years in the house, and gives the relationship of the children to the head of household. If you suspect that your ancestors are living, but have no small children in the house, it is necessary to search the regular (Federal) census which contains all households. 1880 (Federal) Census This census shows the relationship of each person listed to the head of household, and the place of birth of the father & mother of each individual. 1890 Census Most have been destroyed - but not all!
