The first census since Roman times was called the Domesday Book, commissioned by William the Conqueror in 1086. This extensive survey was conducted to assess landholdings and resources in England for taxation and governance purposes. It provided a detailed record of the economy and society of the time, reflecting the feudal structure established after the Norman Conquest.

When did Augustus issued a decree requiring a census of everyone in the Roman Empire?

Though many say there is no secular proof of a Census earlier than 1 AD, consider this article: 'The proof of history is in the "Chronicle of John Malalas", translated by Matthew Spinka (Univ. of Chicago Press, 1940). John Malalas was a historian of Antioch, Syria (c. 491-578 A.D.). On pages 32-33 he writes: "In the 39th year and the 10th month of his [Augustus'] reign he commanded the taking of a census of all his lands, including all that the Romans held during the consulship of Agrippa II, and of Donatus. And all the earth under the Romans was registered by Eumenes and Attalus, the Roman senators." So by using the October to October calendar Malalas used, it dates the issuance of the decree for this census to JULY, 5 B.C. There is one Suidas - another reliable authority - as well as many others, that add information about Augustus' decree, proving the census in Palestine was conducted the very next year - 4 B.C., the very time Christ was born! Therefore, it seems history does indeed have abundant evidence from both early Christians and early PAGANS to corroborate this census (see the excellent article in Unger's "Bible Dictionary" under "Chronology").'

In what year was the first US census taken?

The first national census of the United States of America was in the year 1790. It has since been completed every ten years; but not until the 1850 census did the census-takers ask the names of every member of the household. Up until then, they only asked the name of the head of household and the number of inhabitants.
