That is my philosophy also. I consider the census a source for other
information, such as residence, occupation, and the usual bmd info.
Pre-1850 U.S. censuses I treat differently though.
I guess the one thing I ask myself before recording something as an
event is ... would I want it published in a report? I do not want census
events published, so I don't enter censuses as events.
To each his/her own...
