Completed my census form today - would be interested to hear what folks are thinking about the questions asked and would this census be helpful in the distant future for people searching their family history.
I think that the question on marital status would have been quite useful with some of the people I've researched. A difference between "currently single" and "never been married".

Not sure how the relationships are worked out, because I've only been involved in single-occupancy properties, so never saw such a question.
Looking at ALSTON in south Ribble area, ALSTEAD and DONBAVAND/DUNBABIN etc. everywhere, HOWCROFT and MARSH in Bolton and Westhoughton, PICKERING in the Whitehaven area.

What if the court case changes the form requirements. Admittedly it's only one question but it could be a scramble to get the information out.
