Hi All,
I got this from the Archive of the Dumfries and Galloway list on Roosweb, posted by John Jardine...
They [the missing EDs] were EDs 13 through 27. I found the following handwritten note after ED 7 and before ED 8 on LDS film
0224047:
"Dumfries 13-27 not found in Basement Rooms at removal." As to which Basement Rooms, I do not know. Edinburgh? Dumfries?
EDs 1 through 12 cover most but not all of Greyfriars and St Mary's Parishes. None of the EDs for St Michael's Parish survived. My best guess is that over 50% of the population of the Burgh is NOT enumerated in the surviving EDs. Perhaps a more knowledgeable Lister has a better assessment.
Below is a listing of the Enumeration Districts on the film and the streets that are included in each ED:
ED 1 - Part of Greyfriars Parish - parts of: Castle St., Church Place, Church Crescent, Academy St., Nithmount Terrace, Buccleuch St., Irving St., Gordon St., George St., Charlotte St., Burgh Police Station
ED 2 - Part of Greyfriars Parish - parts of: Bridge St., Brewrey St., Friars Vennel, St. David St., Buccleuch St., County Prison
ED 3 - Part of Greyfriars Parish - parts of: Buccleuch St., Castle St.,
Friars Vennel, Greyfriars St., St. David St., St. Andrew St., Queensberry St., Church Crescent
ED 4 - Part of Greyfriars Parish - parts of: High St., Chapel St., Church Place, St Andrew St., Queensberry St., Queensberry Square
ED 5 - Part of Greyfriars Parish - parts of: Friars Vennel, Irish St., Bank St., Whitesands, Brewrey St., Bridge St.
ED 6 - Part of Greyfriars Parish - parts of: Friars Vennel, High St., Long Close, Irish St.
ED 7 - Part of Greyfriars Parish - parts of: Long Close, High St.,
Midsteeples Buildings, Turnpike Close, Bank St., Irish St.
ED 8 - Part of Greyfriars Parish - parts of: Academy St., Queensberry St., Queensberry Square, King St., Loreburn St.
ED 9 - Part of Greyfriars Parish - parts of: Loreburn St., Nichol Rae's Close, Union St., High St., Queensberry Square, Queensberry St., King St.
ED 10 - Part of St Mary's Parish - parts of: Nichol Rae's Close, South Queensberry St., Union St., High St., English St., Loreburn St.
ED 11 - Part of St Marys Parish - parts of: English St., Shakespeare St., Queen St.
ED 12 - Part of St Mary's Parish - parts of: Queen St., English St., High St., Shakespeare St.
I hope this helps anyone frustrated with disappearing ancestors in Dumfries during the 1881 Census.
My lot are missing at Locharbriggs 
Cheers,
Pam
