Can someone tell me what information is given on the 1841 census, i.e. does it indicate where person was born? Thanks, Sheila |

The 1841 census does give an indication where a person was born but usually just the county. The persons age is recorded, but for adults it is rounded down to nearest 5 years. People are just listed in a row, no indication of head of household or relationship to head, no indication as who lived with whom as there are no addresses. This may be different for city censuses, but the one I was looking at was for a village in Somerset. Persons profession is also stated. |
