Note:

  • There are several things, such as the children's ages, which have been crossed out and re-entered making some parts very hard to read.
  • Irish Free State for Edward Anderson's place of birth is interesting and clearly indicates a political stance on the part of either Eddie Anderson and family or the census taker, most of the time the entry was simply Ireland
