The 1901 Census of Canada was the fourth Census conducted . The Canadian Families Project has a broad mandate. Their re-investigation of family in Canada includes the study of discourses of family; class, ethnicity and region as they relate to family; the history of single parenthood and fragmented families; fertility decline; language, education and family; religion and family; family and community in rural Canada; the social geography of urban families; family income and standards of living. Basic to the work of the Project is the study of families in the past. The Project begins by creating a large database of information from the 1901 census of Canada. The database will include all information from Schedules 1 and 2 of the census for five percent of individuals and families in the whole of Canada (as it existed in 1901). Schedule 1 contains the nominal returns - the enumeration of the population by name. Schedule 2 is a continuation of Schedule 1 and it gives information of buildings and lands held by persons enumerated in Schedule 1. The 5 percent sample will include information on approximately 268,500 persons. (Summary derived from User Guide)
Random sample of 7,200 manually geo-coded I-CeM addresses. The sample comprises 1,000 addresses from each England and Wales census (1851, 1861, 1881, 1891, 1901, and 1911) and 200 addresses from each Scottish census (1851, 1861, 1871, 1881, 1891, and 1901). Addresses have been linked to two sources of geo-coded address data: GB1900 and OS Open Roads. GB1900 contains transcriptions of text labels from the Second Edition County Series six-inch-to-one-mile maps covering the whole of Great Britain, published by the Ordnance Survey between 1888 and 1914. To obtain GB1900 dataset, visit the GB1900 website. OS Open Roads is the Ordnance Survey's Open access modern road vector data. To obtain the OS Open Roads dataset, visit the OS Website.

The ifo Prussian Economic History Database (iPEHD) is a county-level database covering a rich collection of variables for all counties of Prussia during the 19th century. The Royal Prussian Statistical Office collected these data in a number of censuses over the period 1816-1901, with much county-level information surviving in the archives. These data provide a unique treasure for unprecedented micro-regional empirical research in economic history, analyzing the importance of such factors as education, religion, fertility, and many others for the economic development of Prussia in the 19th century. The service of iPEHD is to provide the data in a digitized and structured way.
iPEHD starts with the population census in 1816, which is the first full-scale census released by the Royal Prussian Statistical Office, which had been founded in 1805. The 1816 census covers the 308 Prussian counties at the time. Further extensive census data are available in 1849, 1864, 1871, and 1882, but – as indicated in the following table – many more detailed data were collected in additional years. As the number of counties grew over time, by 1901 the data cover 574 Prussian counties.
In total, iPEHD contains more than 1,500 variables and more than half a million data points, all at the county level. These data are drawn from a total of 15 original sources, many of which consist of several volumes. One of the biggest challenges when analyzing historical data is to ensure comparability over time, where the dimension of the units of observation has to be comparable. Our service facilitates the analysis of data at the county level, holding the administrative boundaries fixed.
iPEHD stores its data in comma-separated values (csv) format. The raw data are categorized by eight content areas and can be accessed in the raw data section.
The codebook section provides information on the names, definitions, labels, and sources for each variable contained in iPEHD.
These data have been generated as part of the work being undertaken by the Kingston Local History Project. The aim of this project is to create a comprehensive database covering the people who lived, worked and died in Kingston upon Thames between 1850 and 1911. The core of the database is the census enumerators' returns for each census year between 1851 and 1891, supplemented by vital registration sources such as parish registers (baptisms, marriages and burials) and the local authority cemetery records.
Analysis of the data is providing a wealth of information on such questions as occupational structures; class profiles; household structures; demographic trends etc., and indicating how these changed over time. For example, this burial database has provided a great deal of material on mortality in Kingston between 1850 and 1911, including the age profile of mortality (in particular highlighting the high and increasing incidence of infant mortality), and the seasonality of mortality. By linking these data to other sources such as the census enumerators' books, maps and Medical Officer of Health reports, we can examine the influence of such factors as location, housing conditions, father's occupation (in the case of infants) etc. on mortality.
The UNI-CEN Digital Boundary File Series facilitates the mapping of UNI-CEN census data tables. Boundaries are provided in multiple formats for different use cases: Esri Shapefile (SHP), geoJson, and File Geodatabase (FGDB). SHP and FGDB files are provided in two projections: NAD83 CSRS for print cartography and WGS84 for web applications. The geoJson version is provided in WGS84 only. The UNI-CEN Standardized Census Data Tables are readily merged to these boundary files. For more information about file sources, the methods used to create them, and how to use them, consult the documentation at https://borealisdata.ca/dataverse/unicen_docs.
