You can leave description blank if you like, and put 1881 in the date as
Lewis suggested - but I use description to record the country of the Census.
eg
EVENT = Census
DESCRIPTION = British
DATE = 1881
PLACE = the address as identified in the Census

I modified the Event Sentence (if all fields are filled) to read [HeShe]
appeared on the [Desc] census [onDate] [inPlace].[Sources] [Notes]  The
sentence definitions for other combinations such as if [Desc] is missing
have been modified accordingly.

Cheers
Jan
