sorry, I find it hard to understand the relationships on the censuses as Sheila has posted them, so I'm re-posting the 1841 for Richmond


Note that no relationships between members of a household are given on the 1841, and the ages of all over the age of 15 are usually (not always!) rounded down to the nearest 5
