Census Enumerators' Books
During the decennial England and Wales Censuses of 1841 to 1901, the individual schedules returned from each household were transcribed and collated by the census enumerators into Census Enumerators’ Books (CEBs).
It is these CEBs that are used by researchers in the fields of social science, local and family history etc.
Their contents changed over time.
