State, territorial, republic, and kingdom Censuses[edit | edit source]
Hawaii took censuses in the years between the federal censuses, the dates are listed below. State census records may have columns that were different or more unusual than those found on federal censuses. The responses and years of coverage may give additional information on the family.
- 1896 Republic census. Honolulu only.[8][9][10]
- 1890 Kingdom census.</ref>[9][10]
- 1878 Kingdom census. Hawaii, Maui, Oahu only.</ref>[9][10]
- 1866 Kingdom census. Mostly Maui.</ref>[9][11]
The 1878, 1890, and 1896 censuses are available at the Hawaii State Archives and the Family History Library (Family History Library films 1010681-88). The Hawaii State Archives also has two "census files," 1840 to 1866 and 1847 to 1866, which contain miscellaneous records such as school censuses, population lists, and vital record summaries. The Family History Library has the 1840 to 1866 file on microfilm 1009896 item 1-2.
Existing and lost censuses[edit | edit source]

Why use a census?[edit | edit source]
A well-indexed census is one of the easiest ways to locate where an ancestor's family lived and when they lived there. You can also use censuses to follow the changes in a family over time, and identify neighbors. These and other clues provided by censuses are important because they help find additional kinds of records about the family.
