Census and Resource Discussion / made it!
« on: Sunday 19 September 10 19:50 BST (UK) »
Each Census is taken as of Midnight Sunday. Intrigued by the following
1881 Census
James Stevens Head Marr 29 Agrl Labourer Somerset, Wedmore
Charlotte Stevens Wife Marr 22 Somerset, Shipham
Eva Stevens Dau 1 Somerset,Wedmore
Dau b]born 11 PM Sunday[/b] Somerset,Baltonsboro
The unnamed young lady qualified with a whole to spare.
When compiling the return after the event, the enumerator was aware of the arrival. Would there have been provision to add a name at a later date - once the parents had decided on a name time and might have wanted it done.
Couldn't have been an isolated instance.
regards
