Buckland Parish CENSUS RECORDS
1841 to 1901
The whole of England was subject to a census survey in 1841, and again every 10 years since. The last census to be made public is the 1901 census. Everyone resident in the village on the census night is recorded by surname, first names, relationship to head-of-house, occupation, age and place of birth. The house name is sometimes given, or you may be able to find the house in the context of surrounding features.
