Publication: \i Ancestry.com\i0 . http://www.ancestry.com : 2006 Note: This database is an every name index to individuals enumerated in the 1901 Canada Census, the fourth census of Canada since confederation in 1867. In addition, the names of those listed on the population schedule are linked to actual images of the 1901 Census (images are of reels T-6428 to T-6556). CONT CONT What Areas are Included: CONT CONT The 1901 census includes seven provinces - British Columbia, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Prince Edward Island, and Quebec; two territories - the Yukon Territory and the Northwest Territories*; and one district - the District of Keewatin. CONT CONT *In 1901 the Northwest Territories was comprised of these seven districts: Alberta, Assiniboia, Athabasca, Franklin, Mackenzie, Saskatchewan, and Ungava. CONT CONT Why Census Records are Important: CONT CONT Census records provide many details about individuals and families. They are useful for pinpointing individuals and families in a particular time and place and depict certain aspects of their lives. Because of the amount of information provided in censuses, combined with the fact that individuals are generally shown in "family groups", censuses are often the first sources turned to when beginning family history research. CONT CONT How the Census is Organized: CONT CONT For the 1901 census each province was divided into census districts. These districts were subsequently divided into sub-districts. Districts were roughly equivalent to electoral districts, cities, and counties. Sub-Districts were based off of towns, townships, and city wards. Each District and Sub-District was assigned a number for administrative purposes. The District Number is unique only to the province in which it belongs and the Sub-District Number is unique only to the District in which it belongs. CONT CONT Known Problems with the 1901 Census: CONT CONT The following districts in Quebec are currently missing from this database: CONT CONT Argenteuil CONT Bagot CONT Beauharnois CONT Bellechase CONT Berthier CONT CONT Likewise, there are several sub-districts that are missing or contain errors. Ancestry is aware of these problems and is currently working to update and improve this index. CONT CONT Enumerator Instructions: CONT CONT The 1901 Census was begun on 31 March 1901. Enumeration was to be completed within 30 days. Individuals were to be enumerated at their usual place of abode, even if they were not at that residence on the night of enumeration. The head of household was to be enumerated first, followed by other members of the household. The head of household was responsible for providing all of the information about the household to the enumerator.
