Pls Help extra Notes on Census Form (General)

The marks were probably made by a statistician - the numbers are perhaps a code for occupations and places of birth.

The O X mark , which has confused the Ancestry transcribers, could be O + in some cases or perhaps O I with a strike mark across the I when a cross check / tally has been performed :-)

The O could be "Omitted" as it seems to be use where a place name or county has been left off the return.

Either way its not OX(FORDSHIRE) in any way shape or form !!!
