Where do you put the household & dwelling numbers of the census?
I am mainly working with the UK Censuses, but street address and location
must be similar!
In Place, I put the location details from the Census, which are usually
the name of a town or village, the county and the country. Where the "town
or village" is given as a parish within a city (such as Reading St Mary or
Winchester St Thomas) I put City, County and Country in Place (eg,
Reading, Berkshire, England) and include the parish with the street
address.
The street address I put into Event Address, including the city parish
where applicable. I use a modified Sentence Definition, the relevant part
of which reads "On [Date] [HeShe] was enumerated at [Address], [Place]."
So I end up with something like "On 30 March 1851 he was living at
Millbrook Cottage, Chapel Street, Braunton, Devon, England" or "On 6 June
1841 she was living at 22 Russell Street, St Mary, Reading, Berkshire,
England."
Occasionally, no more street address is given in the census than the name
of the village or civil parish. For those eventualities I have an Event
Address of <unknown> so the sentence reads "... was living at <unknown>,
Bloxworth, Dorset, England" which I prefer to "... was living at ,
Bloxworth ..."
I should add that when entering the street address into Event Address, I
add the name of the Town or City within [[brackets]] so I can see the full
address but it doesn't print twice as part of the Sentence.
