It lists the name of the farms, names of farm owners (including widows), the sons of the farm owners, male farm hands, cottagers and their sons, and the ages of each person. (Usually only males from the age of 12 years and older, but in some cases all males from birth are listed). There was another census taken by the civil authorities at this same time.
