Sylvia - I, also, believe the early enumerators could read and write. They
would be useless as enumerators otherwise, especially at a time when many
of the population could NOT read and write. I read that the early Scottish
enumerators were often the local schoolteachers or clergy, since they could
read and write.

AT,
You state that it is a fact that early enumerators of the census could not
write. Where did you come across that fact? I find it very hard to
believe
that they could not read or write. Everything I have read leads me to
believe
that they indeed could read and write, if not how do we have anything
intelligent from that era. Even today when reading one might question
whether a
person can actually write!! Just asking.
Sylvia
