What is in This Collection?
These records include an index with images of census returns from 1891 for New South Wales. Original records are located in the Mitchell Library in Sydney. To protect individual privacy, all national censuses were destroyed after statistical information was collected. The New South Wales 1891 census was one of the few census records that survived the destruction. Australian states also took censuses—mostly from the nineteenth century on. However, many of the censuses did not survive because they were taken for population studies and taxation and destroyed after the data was analyzed.
Additional records and/or images may be added to this collection in the future.
