Transcription of the 1837 census of Ried-Mörel, Switzerland, digital images online
Columns were Geschlechtsnahme (family name), ?ausnahme (forename), Geschlecht (gender, with columns for male or female), Stand oder Profession (position or profession), Gemeinde zu welcher die Individuen gehören (municipality to which the individuals belong), Bemerkungen (remarks).
The first pages is labeled 1ste Klasse, Enthaltened die Bürger oder Gemeinder des Orts, die andere Kantons Bürger und Landsangehörigen, welche in der Gemeinde wohnen (1st class, containing the citizens or parishioners of the place, the other canton's citizens and nationals, who live in the municipality). The 1st class encompasses the first six pages of the census. Nothing is written in the column for remarks, and the only entry under municipality is the first, which says "Gemeind Ried".
Below is given the family name, then forename, then in parentheses the sex (Male or Female). This transcriber offers no guarantee that the handwriting has been correctly interpreted.
There is no marking on the census about when one household ends and the next begins. Names in bold represent this transcribers judgment as to the start of a new household (or a single adult, if there are consecutive boldface entries) based on genealogical research. This is work-in-progress, so some houshold groupings are yet to be identified.

Aligned with the last name in the columns for Profession and Municipality is written "im Dinst" and "in Sitten," respectively. The former may be an old spelling of "im Dienst", meaning he was in service.
Page 6: Written in a different hand. It begins with six lines that are crossed out. It appears they are duplicated in the following six lines and that the census taker had accidentally written forenames in the column for surnames, then crossed it out and started over.

- Berchtold Alexander (M)
- Clemens Ittig (listed in the "remarks" column)
Alexander seems to be noted as profession "Soldast", i.e., soldier, and location "yn Rom," i.e., in Rome. (Perhaps he was serving in the Swiss unit that guards the Pope?) Clemens is noted as "gemeind Ried." This transcriber cannot read what is in written under "profession" for Clemens.
Page 8: At the top, this page is labeled 6te Klasse. ??stehend aus dem Fremden, wessen Standes und Profession sie sehen, und sich wirklich in der Gemeinde aushalten. (6th class. [Listing?] the foreignors, whose states and profession are listed, and who really reside in the municipality).
- [Grillya?] [__nest?] from L'Abbaie Abondance in Savoyen, profession "Dienstmag?" (Dienst means service)
Page 9: At the top, this page is labeled 4te Klasse. Enthaltened die Ungehorigen von anderen Oertern des Kantons, welche in der Gemeinde nicht festschaft find. (4th class. Containing the non-residents from other parts of the canton, who are not part of the municipality.)
