June 19, 2002:
The 1891 British census was designed to record the state of the nation on March 31 though the actual survey was conducted in April. Every page contained this header. Those items which did not apply were supposed to have a line drawn through them, but they were often just left blank. In the transcripts which follow, any items left blank in the original have not been entered.

Also on every page were the following column headings. These are represented by numbers in the transcripts as there was not room on the page to copy them all. The columns labelled "No. of Schedule;" "Road, Street, &c., and No. or Name of House" and "Rooms with one or more windows" are at the beginning of each entry to save space as there was only one entry per family in each column. The columns headed "Gaelic or G. & E." and "Whether: 1. Deaf and Dumb. 2. Blind. 3. Lunatic, Imbecile, or Idiot" rarely had entries for any of the Coubroughs. When they did, this is noted in the "notes section at the end of the entry.

Myrna's Notes: There were seven families at this address on this page. The blacksmith, William Montague, and his family, who lived next door to David and Catherine were the only ones who had more than 2 windows (they had 4). Perhaps blacksmithing paid better than tinsmithing. The large gap in ages makes me think that there may have been other children between Jane and David, though this is not certain. Since all of the kids were born in Dumbarton, David and Catherine must have moved there soon after they were married.
