For “Census (1861)” 1861 of Stephen Bromley Jarvis Ferguson

Stephen Ferguson, Merchant Clerk, N. Brunswick, Ch. of Scotland / Eliza Ferguson, School Teacher, U.C. / Rachel Ferguson, School Teacher, U.C. / Euphemia Ferguson, U.C. / John Ferguson, U.C. / Jane Ferguson, U.C. / George Ferguson, U.C. / Henry Ferguson, Farmer, U.C. / Ellen Ferguson, U.C. / Jane Ferguson, U.C.

Original image supplied by Helen Stallman (Stephen Ferguson census 1861.pdf). Names and occupations are clearly legible; ages are not (faint/damaged column) so are not asserted here — the identification of Eliza=Elizabeth (#2998), Rachel (#3049), Euphemia (#3003), John (#3028), Jane (#3023), George (#3009) and Henry=Henry Stephen (#3020) rests on matching this household to Stephen Sr's already-documented children, all plausible for this household grouping. Two entries — 'Ellen Ferguson' and a second 'Jane Ferguson' — do not match any recorded child of Stephen and Jane Richardson and are NOT linked as participants; flagged as unidentified, possibly a daughter-in-law, other relative, or a transcription duplicate. Left open for further research rather than guessed.
