  Information

Census information exists for the 1900, 1910, and 1920 census. Unfortunately, earlier census enumerations (1880-1890) did not survive.

Ronald Vern Jackson wrote a book in 1976 (currently out of print) that went into depth about the Alaska State census 1870-1907. The information from this book which will prove invaluable to Alaskan researchers can be found online at Ancestry. I have not found any of this information online for free yet. Alaska Census 1870-1907 (must have Ancestry membership to view information, but search is free).

Ancestry.com Census Records - Free Search
Early censuses were essentially basic counts of inhabitants, but as the nation grew so did the need for statistics that would reflect the characteristics of the people. Few, if any, records reveal as many details about individuals and families as do the U.S. federal censuses. The same can also be true of census records taken at the state level and in foreign countries (Requires Ancestry.com Membership)
