Territorial and state censuses were taken in 1810, 1818, 1820, 1825, 1830, 1835, 1840, 1845, 1855, and 1865. The 1810, 1818, 1825,1830, 1835, and 1840 censuses have been indexed and published. Some earlier residents were also listed in the 1807 Indiana territorial census, which is indexed. This information was extracted from the Family History SourceGuideTM - Research Outline Illinois. The Family History Library TM has copies of these censuses. The 1865 Logan portion of the census in the library at Utah has been described as follows: 6 pages that I could read no names on and another 4 or 5 where I could read partial names.

1900 |
US Census day: 1 June 1900.
Along with other information this census includes: the month and year of birth; age at last birthday; if a wife is listed within the household, then the number of years married, number of children born of that marriage, and number of children living. This census also included great detail about people who immigrated to the US. I have observed in my family where spouses were deceased, people responded for the total years married and gave numbers that included their first marriages and women gave total number of children born without regard for which marriage they were born to. |

US Census day: 1 January 1920
The 1920 census schedules closely resemble that of the 1910 census. The 1920 census, however, did not ask about unemployment on the day of the census, nor did it ask about service in the Union or Confederate army or navy. Questions about the number of children born and how long a couple had been married were also omitted. The 1920 census included four new questions: one asking the year of naturalization and three about mother tongue. |
