I don't think you will find any censuses for German states, if that is the question. Your best bet is to use the emigration information you have and try to locate a town from there, either in a ships log, or emigration book or online at the hesse HADIS archives. http://www.hadis.hessen.de/ Although, the online archives never really helped me.
