  Notes	(1) Thomas BROWN is listed in a household headed by his son, Charles R. BROWN, in the 1851 census of St. Botolph Without Bishopsgate, London, England. Thomas BROWN is listed in the 1851 census as a retired tradesman who was then 77 years of age; therefore, according to the 1851 census, he was born in about 1774. According to the 1851 census, he was born in Bristol, Somerset, England. * * * The 1851 Census for England was taken on the night of 30 March 1851. The following information was requested: • Name of street, place, road, etc. • House number or name • Name of each person that had spent the night in that household • Relationship of person enumerated to the head of the family • Person's marital status • Age at last birthday (sex is indicated by column in which age is recorded) • Person's rank, profession, or occupation • Person's place of birth (if outside of England or Wales, only the country may be given) • Whether blind, deaf, or idiot Enumeration forms were distributed to all households a couple of days before census night and the household members were required to complete the forms themselves. The next day, the enumerators collected the completed forms. All responses were to reflect the individual's status as of 30 March 1851 for all individuals who had spent the night in the house. People who were traveling or living abroad were enumerated at the location where they spent the night on census night. All of the details from the individual forms were later sorted and copied into enumerators' books, which are the records we can view images of today. The original householders schedules from 1841 to 1901 were destroyed. The clerks who compiled and reviewed the census data made a variety of marks on the returns. Unfortunately, many of these tally marks were written over personal information and some fields, such as ages, can be difficult to read as a result. More useful marks include a single slash between households within a building and a double slash separating households in separate buildings.
