Not at home on census night - what happens? (General)

by janethowell, Sunday, June 15, 2014, 12:54 (3808 days ago)

What happens if a collier (head of house) is physically down a mine on census night (did they do night shifts)?

Were they put on the census or were they omitted? Were they on a separate census for the mine?

I know for the 1901 census (and probably for others), many people chose to travel anywhere overnight to purposely avoid the census.

Just wondering

Many thanks
Janet
