What months could be estimated as to when King Herod's census took place?

Since reference to the census occurs only in Luke's Gospel, any estimate can only be made on the basis of Luke's narrative. He says that Mary and Joseph travelled to Bethlehem for the census. Since Mary was heavily pregnant, the young couple would have left as late as possible and returned as soon as possible. So, the census should have occurred about the same time as Jesus was born, although Luke curiously never mentions it again after using the census as a reason for the journey. We can tell that Luke saw the birth occurring in the warmer months, because he provides a story about shpeherds watching their flocks in open fields. So Luke must have intended the census to be seen as occurring around the April to September period.

What was the most powerful position during the roman republic?
It was the censor. Originally his term of office was for a whole lustrum; that is ,five years. Ten years after the office was instituted, its term was reduced to eighteen months . The term of office of all other magistrates (officers of state) was annual. The lustrum was a ceremony of purification of the soldiers after they had been registered at the census.

Why did Augustus order a census of the Roman Empire?
Augustus, or any other emperor, would require a census for several reasons. A head count and an estimation of the wealth of the people would give an idea of the amount of taxes that could be collected. The military was also involved in that the census would determine how many, if any, new troops were required in a territory for defense or policing. Army recruitment was also involved, as a province with a large number of able bodied males would have a larger share to contribute to the army.

Why did the us gov use a punch card in 1890?
The 1880 census had taken 7 years to complete and the 1890 census was estimated to take 13 years to complete. This was unacceptable, as a census must be done every 10 years as required by the constitution. A means of automating data analysis was needed to reduce the time to complete the census. The punchcard and a card reader connected to a tabulator/counter and a sorter provided this automation. Punchcards could be punched with the data from census forms. A tabulator/counter could count 40 values from the card simultaneously while one lid on the sorter popped up to tell the operator where to put it. Punchcards from the various sorter bins were sent to other tabulator/counter & sorter machines for further processing. Using this new system the basic census results required by the constitution were completed in months instead of years.
