Usage

This template has three parameters and an embedded template with 13 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={{1850-UScensusRow|Dwelling= |Family= |Name= |Age= |Sex= |Color= |Profession= |Value= |Birth= |Marriage= |School= |Illiterate= |Disability= }}".

Therefore, where {{{Row}}} is, use Template:1850-UScensusRow:
Row={{1850-UScensusRow|Dwelling= |Family= |Name= |Age= |Sex= |Color= |Profession= |Value= |Birth= |Marriage= |School= |Illiterate= |Disability= }}

  • Dwelling = Dwelling No.
  • Family = Family No.
  • Name
  • Age
  • Sex
  • Color = Race
  • Profession
  • Value = Real Estate Value
  • Birth = Birth Place
  • Marriage = Married within the year
  • School = Attended school within the year
  • Illiterate = Cannot read or write
  • Disability = Whether deaf and dumb, blind, insane, idiotic, pauper, or convict.

So, on the page where you want to put the census data, use the following code (includes fictional example data):
{{1850-UScensusData|Residence=Mead, PA|CiteLink=<ref name="S1" />|Row={{1850-UScensusRow|Dwelling=412|Family=412|Name=Jabez B. Sackett|Age=48|Sex=M|Color= |Profession=Farmer|Value= |Birth=Massa|Marriage= |School= |Illiterate= |Disability= }}{{1850-UScensusRow|Dwelling= |Family= |Name=Mary do|Age=48|Sex=F|Color= |Profession=Housekeeper|Value= |Birth=Massa|Marriage= |School= |Illiterate= |Disability= }} }}

This results in:

1850 U.S. Census Population Schedule. Residence: Mead, PA.[1]
Dwelling Family Name Age Sex Color Profession Value Birth Marriage School Illiterate Disability
412 412 Jabez B. Sackett 48 M Farmer Massa
Mary do 48 F Housekeeper Massa


When adding rows, do not add any formatting marks or punctuation to separate each {{1850-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:
{{1850-UScensusData|Residence= |CiteLink=<ref name="S" /> |Row={{1850-UScensusRow|Dwelling= |Family= |Name= |Age= |Sex= |Color= |Profession= |Value= |Birth= |Marriage= |School= |Illiterate= |Disability= }}{{1850-UScensusRow|Dwelling= |Family= |Name= |Age= |Sex= |Color= |Profession= |Value= |Birth= |Marriage= |School= |Illiterate= |Disability= }} }}
