The 1871 census of Canada was begun on April 2, 1871 and enumerated nearly 3.5 million people. Information recorded in the census includes: name, gender, age at last birthday, birth country or province, origin, marital status, and religion. Additional questions recorded information regarding occupation, education, and infirmities. Forms were printed with both English and French column headings; answers were recorded in the locally-spoken language.<br>The census images are from Library and Archives Canada.<br><br>In 1871 Canada consisted of just four provinces: New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Ontario, and Quebec. To take the census, localities were divided into 206 census districts, and 1,701 sub-districts. Some census records have not survived, so records from some sub-districts may be missing from this collection.
