Explanation of Categories:

1. ID Number

2. Page Number

3. Line Number

4. Name, surname first

5. Sex

6. Relationship to Head of Household: w=wife s=son d=daughter m=mother f=father gs=grandson ss=stepson nc-=niece np=nephew l=lodger (also used when census entry was "boarder") do=domestic b=brother, ss=sister o=other.

7. Marital status--single, married or widowed

8. Date of birth

9. Place of birth

10. Ethnic origin

11. Religion--most commonly Lutheran, Methodist, Church of England (Anglican), Congregational, Presbyterian, Roman Catholic

12. Occupation--common were farmer, lumberman, laborer . I have ignored the occupation "farmer's son"

13. Comments--other interpretations of spelling, nationality if other than Canadian, Year of Immigration to Canada

Note that all persons listed in this Census were labelled "white".

I have used the spellings as given in the Census, even when almost certainly wrong. If an entry is the same as the line above, I did not duplicate by re-entering. The exception is Occupation, where a blank line means there was no entry made in the census. Occupations are seldom listed for wives and children.. The Census as published lists age at last birthday but that can be calculated when required. There are undoubtedly errors and I apologize in advance for them.
