Due to the lack of historical sources, estimates of the population of England fluctuate considerably up until 1801. It has been suggested that even the 1801 census may have left up to 250,000 people uncounted.1 Population

- 1603 - 4,800,000 at the end of the Tudor period.
- 1801 - 8,900,000 at the time of the first census (probably underestimated)
