Volunteer transcription of the 1871 census enumerators' books, searched at https://www.freecen.org.uk/. A dwelling page gives every person in the household with relationship, marital status, age, occupation and birthplace, plus piece, enumeration district, folio, page and schedule. Created without a url because FreeCEN's single site address is shared by its other census years and would collapse them into one source row; each citation carries the deep link to its own dwelling page. Coverage is partial by county and year: Durham is transcribed for 1861, 1871 and 1891, and a nil for an untranscribed district is not evidence of absence.
DAVIS | Margt Ann | Dau | - | F | 11 | Scholar | Northumberland | Earsdon
The 1871 residence event had no citation of its own; this is the dwelling row it rests on. The address, Quebec Cottages, Esh, was not previously recorded.
FOGGON | Charles | Head | M | M | 48 | Collier | Durham | Beamish ;; FOGGON | Jane | Wife | M | F | 42 | | Durham | Tanfield ;; FOGGON | Matthew | Son | U | M | 19 | | Durham | Leadgate ;; FOGGON | Anne | Dau | U | F | 18 | | Durham | Crook ;; FOGGON | Charles | Son | U | M | 15 | | Durham | Crook ;; FOGGON | Thomas | Son | - | M | 11 | | Durham | South Church ;; FOGGON | Henry | Son | - | M | 7 | | Durham | South Church ;; FOGGON | Jane | Dau | - | F | 8m | | Durham | Medomsley
The whole dwelling panel, one row per person in the page's own column order (Surname, Forenames, Relationship, Marital Status, Sex, Age, Occupation, Birth County, Birth Place), rows separated by ';;'. This is the record that holds the family together: husband, wife and six children under one schedule.
FOGGON | Charles | Son | U | M | 15 | | Durham | Crook
Same dwelling panel, read from the transcription rather than the FamilySearch index already cited on him. Age 15 at 2 April 1871 gives a birth between April 1855 and April 1856, consistent with the June-quarter 1855 Auckland registration; ABT 1855 is kept.
DAVIS | Margt Ann | Dau | - | F | 11 | Scholar | Northumberland | Earsdon
Same dwelling panel. She is the only child in the dwelling; the other three people under the schedule are a visitor, Sarah DARGNE, 46, a widow born Lanchester, and two lodgers, Robt BRUCE, 20, house carpenter, born Washington, and William CAYGLE, 22, coal miner, born Bishop Auckland.
FOGGON | Jane | Wife | M | F | 42 | | Durham | Tanfield
Same dwelling panel, columns Surname, Forenames, Relationship, Marital Status, Sex, Age, Occupation, Birth County, Birth Place; her Occupation cell is empty and is quoted as an empty field. Age 42 at 2 April 1871 gives a birth between April 1828 and April 1829. TANFIELD, County Durham is the first record of her birthplace. No Jane Bates baptism was found at Tanfield in FreeREG for 1824-1834, but Tanfield's register is only patchily transcribed for those years.
