Which House Hold No? Liberia Census

kristenandersonglick1

I don't know which number to use for the House Hold No. This seems to happen frequently. https://www.familysearch.org/indexing/batch/a7ba9592-295a-42e0-8112-2c3411bc61a0

Wow! Personally, I would type 150 and that is because 79 was the correction for the Structure No. But you might look forward and back on the film at adjacent records for inspiration.

(This is a non-critical field. When people search for an indexed record, such numbers are not in the search parameter. )

I looked at your batch. You've indexed it correctly by choosing the replacement number when the original number was crossed out.

From the General Indexing Guidelines in the Project Instructions:

Thank you. Here is another one: https://www.familysearch.org/indexing/batch/0a905d83-6bef-4cb5-9b79-dc1d44c4c661

I guess I haven't seen the number below for institution name so it looks like either one could go with House Hold No.

On the form, to the right of " House Hold No:" are a set of 3 boxes. That's where you get the Household ID. Sometimes it is crossed out and replaced, either above or below those 3 boxes.

Ive been working on this batch as well. When I find that several numbers are crossed out. I use the number that is not crossed out.
