Richard I have only come across a few 'censuses' for St Kitts and Antigua for the period you are interested in. I put censuses in inverted commas because most are headcounts and those with names tend to only list the head of household and the numbers of women, children, servants and slaves in the household. Here are the few 'nominal' censuses I have found - there may be more (these are listed in my guide): Antigua 1753 - TNA: PRO CO 152/27, fos 271-303 (printed in Oliver's 'History of Antigua', vol 1pcix) St Kitts 1707 - TNA: PRO CO 152/7, fo 47 - includes age of head of household (printed in 'Caribbeana' vol 3, p132 1707/8 - TNA: PRO CO 152/6, no 47 (enclosures iv and v) 1711 - TNA: PRO CO 152/9, fos 305-315 The TNA: PRO is the new way of citing Public Record Office references since it became The National Archives. It is possible that there may be other nominal censuses among the Colonial Office records at The National Archives and in the island archives.
