The following transcription is of my photocopy of the 1881 census index for Reiff. The photocopy is of the microfilm of the LDS transcription of the original documents. So there is likely a lot of copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-errors here! Each transcription from the original documents increases the danger of error.
The columns on the 1881 census transcription read;
Address. Surname. Forename. Relationship to Head. Marital Condition. Age. Sex. Occupation. Where Born. / Co. / Parish
So.... I have taken a few liberties with the index to bring the style more in line with the earlier and later censuses, once I eventually view the microfilmed coppies I will know if I was correct!
One problem is that the indexers shortened occupation listings over 13 letters, and added a + sign to indicate it was shortened. In most cases the full listing is obvious, but there is further danger of error creeping in through my interpretations, sigh.
The enumerator numbered the households from consecutively for each community, I have identified the households by using a prefix of "81" to denote the 1881 census data, and a suffix based on the enumerators numbering.
Following the Reiff data I have included the two households of Camusglassellan, and the two households of Faochag. Both communities include people found in earlier Reiff censuses, so I have tacked them on.
