The Rest of The United Kingdom
Note that when referring to the Census of England and Wales, sometimes it is described as "the UK Census" or "the British Census". This is in error, as the Census of England and Wales does not include the Census of Northern Ireland or of Scotland. The data for the census of these regions of the UK are held in different locations to that of the England and Wales Census.
Prior to the secession of the Irish Free State, the whole of Ireland engaged in the census on the same night. Unfortunately none of the Census returns from Ireland for the 19th century still exist. The 1901 Census is the first complete Census, and is available online.

Famous quotes containing the words rest, united and/or kingdom:
“Sleep is a reconciling,
A rest that peace begets.”
—Unknown. Weep You No More, Sad Fountains (l. 10–11)
“Human life in common is only made possible when a majority comes together which is stronger than any separate individual and which remains united against all separate individuals. The power of this community is then set up as “right” in opposition to the power of the individual, which is condemned as “brute force.””
—Sigmund Freud (1856–1939)
“Was I not born in this Realm? Were my parents born in any foreign country?... Is not my Kingdom here? Whom have I oppressed? Whom have I enriched to other’s harm? What turmoil have I made to this Commonwealth that I should be suspected to have no regard of the same?”
—Elizabeth I (1533–1603)
