Census of 1851
Index of Heads of Family

The following census information was transcribed from Crown public records by Mr.John Roy. Though every effort was made to retain the integrity of the census, we assume no responsibilities for errors. This is a finding tool, carefully entered and generously donated by a fellow researcher. As good research practice, we encourage those who find promising leads in the material to verify the entries by examining the census films.

In some cases either the surname or christian name could not be read, due to faint print. Spelling differences and errors make alternatives worthwhile searching.
Enumeration districts 1, 2 and 3 appear twice, the later series are labelled one, two etc; State Institutions also are labelled 1a.
