Until the first census of 1801 there is no national record of population size. Estimates have to be made by reference to other records, and the use of various methods of extrapolating
from these data.
These include Muster Rolls, and Parish Records such as Baptisms and Burials.

1522 (Muster Rolls) c500-700
