Introduction - New York State Census Records The U.S. Federal Census is taken every ten years, beginning with 1790. This guide is for New York City and State censuses taken between the federal census years or made separately from the federal census. (For information on Federal Census Records for New York (and other states) see... US Census Records 1790-1940.) New York State censuses are available for some counties for 1825, 1835, 1845 and 1855, and for most counties for 1865, 1875, 1892, 1905, 1915 and 1925.

All 4 are included with a subscription to their online genealogy records collection.
