Explore and download census records, digitised and harmonised from the original enumeration books, detailing characteristics for all individuals resident in Great Britain at each census from 1851 to 1911, developed by the I-CeM project. ICeM has consistent geography over time and standardised coding schemes for many census variables.
Use this purpose-built ICeM system to filter the database of over 180 million census records based on 20 key variables, then download the resulting data table of individual census records with 100+ variables per record.
Use our ICeM-Nesstar system to explore and analyse the icem data online, by tabulating variables, carrying out correlation and regression analyses, and exporting resulting statistical tables.
Access to the names and addresses of the ICeM dataset (1851 to 1911) to facilitate linkage across census years is available via Special Licence request.
