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:
“Lyke as a huntsman after weary chace,
Seeing the game from him escapt away,
Sits downe to rest him in some shady place,”
—Edmund Spenser (1552?–1599)
“An inquiry about the attitude towards the release of so-called political prisoners. I should be very sorry to see the United States holding anyone in confinement on account of any opinion that that person might hold. It is a fundamental tenet of our institutions that people have a right to believe what they want to believe and hold such opinions as they want to hold without having to answer to anyone for their private opinion.”
—Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)
“There exists a black kingdom which the eyes of man avoid because its landscape fails signally to flatter them. This darkness, which he imagines he can dispense with in describing the light, is error with its unknown characteristics.... Error is certainty’s constant companion. Error is the corollary of evidence. And anything said about truth may equally well be said about error: the delusion will be no greater.”
—Louis Aragon (1897–1982)
