1841 Census Householders' Schedules - a real eye-opener!
http://www.balh.org.uk/uploads/tlh-d...2-may-2013.pdf
You need to scroll down a little. As pointed out to me by a member of the Cornwall OPC group, this makes fascinating reading. I was totally ignorant of any of this. |

That was fascinating. I'd always understood - wrongly - that 1851 was the first household schedules.
I knew they were in place by 1871 as a London enumerator repeatedly wrote bitterly: lodger took schedule, indicating just how frequently the poor moved home.

What an interesting insight into the 1841 Census. Amazing how co-operative everyone seemed to be, making their best effort to do as asked.
It sent me off to do some research - I have PAGE family in the Cainham area a little earlier than the census. But I did have to go and look to see if William Page enumerator of district 3 could be related. |

Thanks for this. It was very interesting. I'm with Merry and wish that all the HSs had survived.
