    3. The transcriber has, as is required when making transcriptions, recorded how the written document is shown - Tedwill (not Tedwell as you mention). The next address in the census is Landscove which is in the middle of the map shown here http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/DEV/Staverton/ParishMap Regards, Deborah O’Brien Devon OPC Co-ordinator DFHS Member 11261 http://genuki.cs.ncl.ac.uk/DEV/OPCproject.html Online Parish Clerk for Meavy, Newton Ferrers, Roborough by Torrington, Sheepstor, Walkhampton http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~dob7/index.html Researching SQUANCE, LILLICRAP, SURTEES, DANKESTER & YATES -----Original Message----- From: DEVON [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jane Lucas Sent: 17 August 2017 13:27 To: [email protected] Subject: [DEV] 1841 CENSUS STAVERTON Hi All Is anyone familiar with the geography of this Parish? I’m looking at a transcription of the 1841 Census which I found on GENUKI. Not sure who produced it. GENUKI say it came from the Parishes of the South Hams website but I can’t see who runs it. They have transcribed Tidwell as Tedwell, which probably doesn’t matter as most people will know that’s an error. There’s also a person missing. My question however is was Tidwell an area or a farm? I’d assumed the latter based on Wills I’ve found. In 1841 I have a number of people living there which I already knew and they are all shown. However, there are eight people transcribed as living at Tidwell that I have never heard of. Perhaps there was a farm cottage that the enumerator listed separately but didn’t record a place name? The original image lists them with Tidwell before going on to the next household. The Ancestry Record shows all those unknown (to me) eight as a separate household but there is definitely no new name in the place column in the original image. It’s quite interesting as three or four of the unknowns have occupations as ‘Ap’ which I take to be apprentice? Also does anyone know what ‘FS’, ’MS’ or ‘Ind’ means in the Occupation column?
