Online Historical Population Reports
Histpop - the Online Historical Population Reports (OHPR) collection provides online access to the complete British population reports for Britain and Ireland from 1801 to 1937; this includes, England, Scotland, and the whole of Ireland from 1821 to 1911. The reports include statistical data for parishes, towns, hundreds, counties, and each country within Britain starting in 1801 and then every ten years till 1931. If your looking for specific people then refer to the various websites that have those records.
The collection includes 200,000 pages of census and registration material for the British Isles that are supported by numerous ancillary documents from The National Archives, critical essays and transcriptions of important legislation which provide an aid to understanding the context, content and creation of the collection.
Pre 1841 census Statistical Data
With these charts one is able to determine the development of parishes and towns and surrounding parishes from census year to census year. It is surprising to see how few houses there are in some parishes and more families than houses.
