It's easy for an enumerator to make a mistake with country of origin as I know from my own research where an ancestor is born in Ireland on one census then Sheffield on the next. The telling point surely was that the birth dates for Beatrice were the same. With so much going on it is sometimes difficult to squeeze all of the detail into the programme, so we get the drift of it in the alloted time.
