Continuous transcription: [Carrin] — Ann Callister, head, married, aged 35, shoemaker's wife, born Andreas; John Quayle, son, unmarried, aged 10, at home, born Andreas; Edward Quayle, son, unmarried, aged 5, at home, born Andreas.

Notes on transcription

There is an intriguing discrepancy here: the younger child is recorded as Edward Quayle, aged five, whereas the known daughter Catharine Ann Quayle, baptised in November 1845, would also have been about five — and William Edward Quayle (baptised 1842) should be around eight or nine but does not appear at all. The census clearly describes this person as a son and places the age in the male column, so it would be unsafe to substitute Catharine's identity without supporting evidence: the enumerator may have made an error, or this may be a different child not otherwise documented in this collection.
