The Scotland Census of 1851 was taken on 30 March 1851. Information listed in these records includes: name, gender, age, year and place of birth, year and place of residence, relation to head of household, marital status and occupation. Census records were collected according to a national program and were taken in the same manner throughout Scotland. The records were subsequently preserved centrally and survive as a robust record of the nineteenth century from 1841 to 1901. This census was collected and organized around enumeration districts and sub-districts. Enumeration districts correspond to parishes -- with some exceptions. The place of residence is often broken down into the name of street, house name or number, county, and parish.
