Next door neighbours of my partner's relatives: Benjamin Wakefield, Head, M, 26 Sarah E, Wife, M, 27 (Baby) do. Age 3 hours. How popular must the enumerator have been!

He might not have been popular with the new parents, but I bet he's VERY popular with anyone researching the family today. Just think, if the baby had been born a few hours later, it wouldn't have been found until the next census comes out in 2012 !!!!! Kath. x

Good point, BUT as he hadn't as yet been named...
