I think I've found a total census whack....

HO107/711/5 1841

D Shannono Child

Not sure if it counts because they obviously haven't come up with a name yet.

or there's "A Man Not Know Name" :-\

There must be countless Censuswhacks on the 1841. This one is quite ridiculous!

Do I have a complete censuswhack with my GGGG Grandparents Dennis and Matilda Turvey?  The closest I have found is their granddaughter Ellen Matilda Turvey.

Ah, the arcane rules of censuswhackery!

I'm afraid a 'total censuswhack' is only possible if both the first and second names are unique (not the combination of the two, Comosus :(). 

By the same token, there are almost 1300 Israels in the 1841, 55 Stockills and 15 Stockhills, and similar numbers in 1851, so the International Federation would not count this as a Censuswhack I'm afraid.  The same would hold true of the Turvey's.

BUT (!) there are no other Shannonos (curiously!) so this IS a Censuswhack!

Etelyncupirby is wonderful, and a clear Censuswhack - I wonder if any of the Indian transcribers of the 1841 thought 'Hey that's a lovely name, I think I'll christen my next one after them!'

Now then, are we all clear about the rools?  ;D

cheers

Paul

Definitely a one-and-only - neither first nor last name occurs elsewhere on any census!

(My own guess from the image is a very poor stab at Hephzibah...  ::) )

My Great Aunt Tilly (Matilda) was found on 1901 census as Moubilou!

Does she qualify?
