You just get Male/Female and born in or > out of county - usually a job for the head of house - but not always Hi Jean, Thanks for your response. You are right. Status is not usually shown. I should have asked who was in Deborah BRIGHT's household at the time of the 1841 census to see if there was a male there who could have been her husband, William. I have the 1837 Kingswood burial of a William BRIGHT who could have been Deborah's husband, but wanted to check first if she had a possible husband still living in 1841. Josephine
