Questions about the 1961 census

edit

On p. 7 in the census they count the number of people in Bethlehem Rural C.E. C.A.(Census area), and they have:

...and something about E.D. which I am not able to read? Does anyone know? I wonder how we should incorporate this info into the articles? Huldra (talk) 21:52, 31 July 2018 (UTC)Reply

@Huldra: C.D. = Census District, C.A. (not C.E.) = Census Area, E.D. = Enumeration District. Is that what you wanted to know? Zerotalk 01:44, 1 August 2018 (UTC)Reply
@Zero0000: thanks, I am wondering about how to incorporate this info into the articles. Perhaps something like this:
"In 1961, the population of Khadr was 1,798,[1] in addition it had 6,945 persons as part of its surrounding district.[2]"
Do you think that will do? I suspect these numbers (that is, the E.D. = Enumeration District) mainly covers Bedouin, Huldra (talk) 20:19, 1 August 2018 (UTC)Reply
@Huldra: There is a footnote #1 on page 9 about enumeration districts. Amongst other information it says that the letters "E.D." are only used if the enumeration district includes more than one locality. So it isn't just the town plus bedouin. I suspect that the enumeration districts were rather arbitrary divisions drawn for the purposes of the census. Zerotalk 23:42, 1 August 2018 (UTC)Reply
@Zero0000:, ah, I hadn't seen that. I will not include it, then, Huldra (talk) 23:47, 1 August 2018 (UTC)Reply
