Beth yw'r Cyfrifiad?

What is the Census?

Ym 1801 penderfynnodd Llywodraeth Lloegr trefnu cyfrifiad, sef cyfrif faint o bobl oedd yn byw yn y wlad ar y pryd, a rhywbeth amdanynt. Penderfynwyd hefyd y byddent cael cyfrifiad tebyg pob deng mlynedd o hynny ymlaen.

Yn y cyfrifiadau gynnar (1801,1811,1821,1831) ni chafodd cofnodion unrhyw manylion bersonol am unigolion eu cadw ar ôl y cyfrifiad. Ond, o 1841 ymlaen, cadwyd manylion bersonol am bob un berson oedd yn byw yn y wlad ar noson y cyfrifiad: eu henwau, eu cyfeiriadau, eu hoed, ble ganwyd, a'i galwedigaeth. Yn ystod y blynnyddoed ganlynol, fe ychwanegodd nifer o gwestiynau eraill, megis statws briodasol, perthynas i pen y teulu ac, yn 1891, pa iaith y siaradent.

Cedwir manylion bersonol sy'n cael eu casglu gan y cyfrifiad yn cudd am ganrif ar ôl y cyfrifiad: cyhoeddir manylion ystadegol yn unig. Felly, nid oes modd gweld manylion bersonol ar ôl 1901 ar hyn o bryd.

Oherwydd y Rhyfel, ni chynhaliwyd cyfrifiad yn 1941.

In 1801 the English Government decided to hold a census, that is a count of how many people lived in the country at the time, and something about them. It was also decided to hold a similar census every ten years from then on.

In the early censuses (1801,1811,1821,1831) no personal details about individuals were kept after the census. But from 1841 onward personal details were kept about every individual alive on the night of the census: their names, addresses, ages, where they were born and their profession. During the following years further questions were added, such as marital status, relationship to the head of the family and, in 1891, what language they spoke.

Personal details which are collected for the census are kept secret for 100 years afterwards: only statistical extracts are published. Therefore, at the moment, we cannot see any personal details from a census after 1901.

Due to the war, there was no Census in 1941.
