Template:1870-UScensusData

Usage

This template has three parameters and an embedded template with 20 parameters. The three parameters for this template are Residence, CiteLink, and Row.

• The Residence parameter is for the locale of your census data (see green text below).
• The CiteLink parameter is to link to the source citation. The template needs the entire code: <ref name="S18" />
• The value for parameter Row will always be "Row={{1870-UScensusRow|Dwelling= |Family= |Name= |Age= |Sex= |Color= |Profession= |Real= |Personal= |Birth= |DadForeign= |MomForeign= |BirthMonth= |Marriage= |School= |CannotRead= |CannotWrite= |Disability= |Male21= |Male21crime= }}".

Therefore, where {{{Row}}} is, use Template:1870-UScensusRow:
Row={{1870-UScensusRow|Dwelling= |Family= |Name= |Age= |Sex= |Color= |Profession= |Real= |Personal= |Birth= |DadForeign= |MomForeign= |BirthMonth= |Marriage= |School= |CannotRead= |CannotWrite= |Disability= |Male21= |Male21crime= }}

• Dw = Dwelling No.
• F = Family No.
• Name
• Age
• Sex
• Color = Race
• Job = Profession
• Real = Real Estate Value
• Pers = Personal Property Value
• Birth = Birth Place
• FForeign = Father is foreign born
• MForeign = Mother is foreign born
• BMonth = If born within the year, in which month
• Mmonth = If married within the year, in which month
• Sch = Attended school within the year
• NoRead = Cannot read
• NoWrite = Cannot write
• Dis = Whether deaf and dumb, blind,insane, idiotic, pauper, or convict.
• Male21 = Male Citizen of the U.S. of 21 years of age and upward
• MNoVote = Male citizen of the U.S. of 21 years of age and upwards, whose right to vote is denied or abridged on other grounds than rebellion or crime

So, on the page where you want to put the census data, use the following code (includes fictional example data):
{{1870-UScensusData|Residence=Mead, PA|CiteLink=<ref name="S1" />|Row={{1870-UScensusRow|Dwe=412 |F=412 |Name=Freddie B. Sackett |Age=48 |Sex=M |Color= |Job=Jailer |Real=2100 |Pers=400 |Birth=England |FForeign=y |MForeign=y |BMonth= |MMonth= |Sch= |NoRead= |NoWrite= |Dis= |Male21=y |MNoVote= }}{{1870-UScensusRow|Dw= |F= |Name=Mary do|Age=48|Sex=F|Color= |Job=Housekeeper|Real= |Pers= |Birth=Massa|FForeign=y |MForeign=y |BMonth= |MMonth= |Sch= |NoRead= |NoWrite= |Dis= |Male21= |MNoVote= }} }}

This results in (fictional data):

When adding rows, do not add any formatting marks or punctuation to separate each {{1870-UScensusRow}}. Just a space or nothing. All formatting is embedded in the templates themselves.

Copy and paste

For your convenience, here is the code without any example data:
{{1870-UScensusData|Residence= |CiteLink=<ref name="S" />|Row={{1870-UScensusRow|Dw= |F= |Name= |Age= |Sex= |Color= |Job= |Real= |Pers= |Birth= |FForeign= |MForeign= |BMonth= |MMonth= |Sch= |NoRead= |NoWrite= |Dis= |Male21= |MNoVote= }}{{1870-UScensusRow|Dw= |F= |Name= |Age= |Sex= |Color= |Job= |Real= |Pers= |Birth= |FForeign= |MForeign= |BMonth= |MMonth= |Sch= |NoRead= |NoWrite= |Dis= |Male21= |MNoVote= }} }}
