You will also find listed everyone else present in the house at the date of the census, such as visitors and servants. I imagine this was done to avoid ambiguity. For example, if someone's occupation is a servant they are not necessarily servant to the household in which they live... hence each person is described in terms of their relationship to the head of the household. |
