Hi Pete just absorbing what you have written. Will take a look and get back to you. In the mean time here is the dates of the census. Ttfn. Lesley 1841 Census. At the beginning of each Enumerator's booklet there is a set of instructions. The part about ages reads - "Age and Sex". Write the age of each person opposite to the name in one of the two columns headed "Males" and "Females", according to the sex. Write the age of every person under 15 years of age as it is stated to you. For persons aged 15 years and upwards, write the lowest term of 5 years within which the age is. Thus - for Persons aged 15 years and under 20 write 15, 20 years and under 25 write 20 25 years and under 30 write 25 30 years and under 35 write 30 35 years and under 40 write 35 40 years and under 45 write 40 45 years and under 50 write 45 50 years and under 55 write 50 55 years and under 60 write 55 60 years and under 65 write 60 65 years and under 70 write 65 70 years and under 75 write 70 and so on up to the greatest ages. If no more can be ascertained respecting the age of any person than that the person is a child or is grown up, write "under 20", or "above 20", as the case may be.
