Antrim Census returns & substitutes

1669 Hearth Money Rolls, North Antrim
1740 Protestant Householders, North Antrim
1766 Religious Census, Ballymoney Parish

1803 Agricultural Census NEW

1841-1851- Old Age Pension Claims: the introduction of old age pension (min. age 70) c1909 meant 1841 and 1851 census returns were checked as claimants were born before civil registration of births started in 1864. Extracts from these census searches are in the pension claim files (PRONI).
It is sometimes worth checking for people slightly younger than pension age (surprising how many people weren't as old as they said!) or older siblings whose details can fill in family details such as names of parents and year of marriage, townland, etc.

People in institutions like prisons, army and police barracks, asylums and workhouses were often listed in the census only by their initials.  If you think the person you seek was in an institution in 1911, first try the return for the institution, if you know it, as the ancillary information on the return (age, county of birth, previous occupation etc.) will help you to decide whether this is the right person. If you don't know the institution, or merely suspect that someone might have been in one, use their initials plus the age and sex boxes to narrow it down, eg T S, 25, female.
