Names from the Census Records

You might find this page useful if you are searching for someone in the North Queensferry census records.

It lists all of the Christian names, followed by all of the Surnames, in the records from 1841 to 1921.

Some of the handwriting in the original records is very hard to read, the census enumerators sometimes used abbreviations, and we occasionally made typos when we were transcribing the data!

For example if you are looking for “Sandy McDonald” (a mythical example), there are no records for Sandy, but there are records for: S. and of course for Alex; Alex M.; Alex S.; Alex.; Alex. Leslie; Alex. M.; Alexander; Alexander Malcolm; and Alexander S.

Any one of these could be Sandy.

And you might also want to look at McDonald and MacDonald.

If you are looking for females, there are four records under “M” which are potentially misleading – Mrs, Mrs Joseph, Mrs. E., and Mrs. J.

The Census Analysis page gives top-10 male, female and family names, and links to all names by order of occurence and in alphabetical order.
