1911 Ireland census
« on: Tuesday 18 June 19 16:43 BST (UK) »
Hi, wondering if anyone can advise me on info on a 1911 census for Armagh, it has 2 people listed, one being the wife the other is the son, but it says head of the household is returned on form H.
Does anyone know what this means and if so where could I find the information on said form H.
Thanks for reading x

It says on Census site what the different Forms are!




The forms are as follows:

    Form B3: Shipping return.
    Form E: Workhouse return.
    Form F: Hospital return.
    Form G: College and Boarding-School return.
    Form H: Barrack return.
    Form I: Return of Idiots and Lunatics in institutions.

Husband should be listed in census by initials- have you tried that?

A John Williamson listed under RIC Barracks in same street-
