Excerpt from The Evolution and Significance of the Census The credit of first attempting the compilation of population statistics in modern times belongs apparently to the Canadian province Of Quebec, Or La Nouvelle France, as it was then called. There, between the years 1665 and 1754, no fewer than 15 regular censuses were taken; during the latter por tion of the same period seven censuses of Nova Scotia (then Acadia) and six of Newfoundland were also taken. In Europe systematic records Of population do not appear to have commenced until the eighteenth century, during the first half of which enumerations were carried out in several of the German States. In the United States the first census was taken in 1790. In England and France the first regular censuses were taken in 1801, in Norway in 1815, in New South Wales in 1828, in Belgium in 1831, while in later veats during the nineteenth century, censuses were instituted in nearly all the most important countries of the world. TO day every civilised country now recognises that a census is indispensable. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
