All relationships to head of family.
All born in Nova Scotia unless otherwise mentioned.
If persons found in another community in census, both places noted.
Asterisk (*) beside name means person is listed elsewhere with own family.
It will appear that I have made many errors in this list of census.
However, I have copied the ages and spelling as I found them in the
census.
It is obvious that many people did not tell the truth about their ages to the
census taker,
and many census takers did not know how to spell some names.
However, I would like to know of any errors that I have likely made in this
document.
Persons of other surnames living in the same household are listed in that
household.
An index of these names is in the file "Strays"
if you are looking for a person or family who may not be under their name
alphabetically.
Also there is a file which lists the Sisters and
Priests in the county.
Another helpful tool that I have included in this document is a list of
the French male and female names found in the listings.
I was always not sure if they were male or female and I made this list to help
with clarification.
The list follows this note.
