Occupations are not included in 1841 census

Don't forget that Ireland was regarded as a foreign country in 1841.

Not as far as the Census was concerned  ;)

The Instructions to Enumerators for the 1841 census were that 'S' was entered for those born in Scotland, 'I' for those born in Ireland and 'F' for Foreigners. http://www.rootschat.com/links/04on/

As I  Posted on: Yesterday at 15:00:31  :)
The column has whether born in Scotland, Ireland, or Foreign Parts, to be shown as  'S' 'I' or 'F'. Was everyone else shown as F ?

I posted that because I have found some Irish people shown as 'F' in 1841 censuses that I've looked through, so I assumed that Ireland was regarded as a foreign country.  Obviously some enumerators thought it was (or the people who filled in the forms).
