As soon as possible after the completion of the Enumeration―
- Arrange the Householders' Schedules and other Schedules in order,
so that all those relating to one Parish, Hamlet, or other Local
Subdivision, are together.
- Copy very legibly
in ink the Schedules into this Enumeration Book, in
accordance with the following directions:―
Directions respecting the manner of entering the Schedules.
- Insert first, in the spaces at the top of the page, the name of the
Civil Parish or Quoad Sacra Parish, School Board District, Parliamentary Burgh,
Parliamentary Division of Burgh, Royal
Burgh, Municipal Burgh, Police Burgh, Burgh Ward, Town, Village, Hamlet,
or Inhabited Island, in which the houses of
that page are situate, drawing your pen through such of the words as are
inappropriate.
- In the first column write the No. of the Schedule you
are about to copy, commencing with No. 1; in the second column
the name of the Road, Street, Square, &c., where the house is situate,
and the No. of the house, or any distinctive name by which it is
known; then insert in the third column the figure 1 for an Inhabited
House, and Copy from the Schedule into the other columns all the
particulars concerning the persons mentioned therein, making use of any
of the authorized contractions (see below), and taking especial care to
class the ages of males
and females under their
proper columns.
Enter in the same manner the other
Schedules, up to the last, in strict numerical order.
- Under the name of the last entered person in each house (as
defined in II. 6 of the Instructions in your Memorandum Book) draw
a strong black line across
the entire column headed "Name and Surname," as in the example on the
opposite page, to separate the inmates from those of the house next
following; and where there is more than one Occupier in the same
house, draw a similar line half-way across the column to
distinguish each Family, as in the example. [Note.―A
Lodger, with or without a family, is to be considered an Occupier.]
- If you have enumerated any persons in Canal Boats or Barges, enter
the Schedules for Vessels in the same manner as the Householders'
Schedules, stating in col. 2 the locality in which the boats, &c. were
met with.
- Where you have to insert an uninhabited house, or a house building,
do this by writing in the fourth column, "1 U," or "1 B," on a distinct
line, taking care to omit none which are noted in your Memorandum Book.
When two or more houses, uninhabited or building, occur together, insert
the total number, thus:―"3 U," "2 B," as the case may be.
- At the bottom of each page, on the line for that purpose, enter the
total number of houses
in that page, as in the example. If the statement respecting any
inhabited house is continued from one page to another, that house will
be reckoned in the total of the houses in the page on which the first
name is entered. Enter also, on the line at the foot of the page, the
total number of males and
females, and of windowed Rooms,
in that page. [The number of
windowed Rooms, must be reckoned in the case of each Family, the
relative figures being inserted in a line with the name of the Head.]
- When all the Schedules belonging to any one Civil Parish, Quoad
Sacra Parish, School Board District, Parliamentary Burgh, Parliamentary
Division of Burgh, Royal Burgh, Municipal Burgh, Police Burgh, Burgh
Ward, Town,
Village, Hamlet, or Inhabited Island, have been entered, write across the page, "End
of the Civil (or Quoad Sacra) Parish of ――," "End of the
Parliamentary (Royal, Municipal, or Police) Burgh of ――,"
"End of the Burgh Ward of ――," "End of the Town
(Village or Hamlet) of ――," "End of the Island of ――," making the next entry on the first line
of the following page.
Where a Burgh partakes of more than one of the specified characters
(Parliamentary, Royal, Municipal, or Police), and the respective boundaries happen
to be different, the termination of the particulars applicable to
each must be similarly indicated.
