Or you could just google '1831 census Lancashire'. Censuses began in 1801 and have continued up to the present day. The earlier ones didn't have much personal detail and mostly have not survived, but county records offices would have those in their area. Additionally, sometimes other local censuses or headcounts were done and again they would be in the records offices. nell |
