When entering names, follow the order shown below to ensure that all members of the same family group are enumerated together:

1 Head of household
2 Wife of household head
3 Unmarried children in order of age, eldest first
4 Married children and their families
5 Other relatives and their families
6 Lodgers and their families
7 Employees and their families
8 Other members of the household.




2. Include as "son or daughter" a stepchild or an adopted child, as well as foster children or wards for whom no pay is received. An unrelated foster child or ward for whom pay is received should be marked "Lodger". Be sure to (i) fill the "Other" circle, and (ii) write in the actual relationship to the household head for all persons for whom no marking position has been provided.
