Well, hol828 (incidentally, are you related to the 828's of Windsor?) :) - quite a slew of entries: well done!

And Julie, I think you'll find you have the only Sensitive in 1881 and 1891, so a definite Censuswhack!

cheers

Looks hideously complicated, Annie!  Think we'll just have to go with the hand of history on this one! :)  Ah well, someday they'll be sorry!

cheers

I am wondering whether this might be a unique occupation ::)
Sorry if it's already been reported.

1881, Horfield, Gloucestershire
Henry John OSBORNE, Head, Mar, 29, b Birmingham Warwick
Henry's occupation is:
Travelling, Sec, Asso. stopping sale of Intoxicating Liquors on Sunday

And above this, in a different hand, is written:
humbug!!!

I saw an article in Family History Monthly, yesterday about Censuswhacking.

How does it work  ???

When do you you start looking up other new people  ???
