In this paper, we study the ideals of finite elements in special vector lattices of real sequences, first in the duals of Cesaro sequence spaces ces(p) for p is an element of{0}boolean OR[1,infinity) and, second, after the Cesaro sum ces(p)(X) of a sequence of Banach spaces is introduced, where p = infinity is also allowed, we characterize their duals and the finite elements in these sums if the summed up spaces are Banach lattices. This is done by means of a remarkable extension of the corresponding result for direct sums.
