1901 census return

Elizabetha

Hi, wonder if anyone can help with this...

On the 1901 census return form below it says 'Head of family returned of form H' (I think it's a H) Where will I find form H to see his details?

Thanks

think that's on form H... was he army ?

Form H are barracks returns, probably somewhere nearby. He's probably listed under just his initials.

there's a barracks (R.I.C.) in the same town but no T.S. listed ...

Thanks Shane, it would be WS (walter skerrett) who was head of family and in the army

starting with the 1901 link

family at Limerick Rd. Kildare, so I'm guessing Walter is in the Curragh....

shanew

do you have any details on him from other sources - i.e. approx age, occupation, place of birth ?

there are a number of W.S. in Curragh camp... http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/search/results.jsp?census_year=1901&surname=s&exact=&firstname=w&county=Kildare&townland=&ded=&age=&sex=&relationToHead=&religion=&education=&occupation=&marriageStatus=&marriageYears=&childrenBorn=&childrenLiving=&birthplace=&language=&deafdumb=&search=Search&sort=&pageSize=100
