[The first blank row of this chart is reserved for the "head of household", which is written in the space for this question.]
____
For each household member (regardless of the age and marital status) living in the same household with both parents or one of them, the serial number of his (her) mother (related by blood or not) within the dwelling, i.e. the number indicated against her name in the list of residents in the dwelling (column 1), is to be recorded. If there is no mother in the household, the number of father is to be entered. If there is neither mother nor father within the household, no number is to be recorded.
3. What relationship are you in with an individual, listed first in the household?
Child
In the family statistics children comprise the following persons living with their parents:
Foster children and children in the care of the family are not classified as children.
The definition of child has changed since 1990. A child is now defined as a person who lives with his or her parents irrespective of his or her marital status, unless the person has a spouse or children who live in the same household-dwelling unit. In 1990 only unmarried persons were counted as children. So while in 1990 widowed or divorced persons living with their parents were classified as not belonging to families, since 1992 they have been regarded as members of the family.
Cohabiting couple
A cohabiting couple is defined as two spouseless adults of different sex aged 18 and over and occupying the same dwelling on a permanent basis, provided their age difference is less than 16 years and they are not siblings. In case the couple has a common child these specifications do not apply. Same-sex persons living together are not inferred as cohabiting couples. Only registered partnerships are recorded in the statistics.
Family status
Family members are grouped by family status as follows:
In the family statistics children comprise all persons, regardless of age, who live with their parents, or the spouse's biological or adopted children, but not foster children or children in the care of the family.
Record below the people living in the dwelling, including people traveling for business or pleasure, sick people staying in the hospital or in a clinic, fishermen still at sea, personnel navigating planes or ships for a company.
Do not include people listed in the heading of list B opposite this column (read this heading before filling out list A).
If you are housing housekeepers, apprentices or employees in your service at your own home, record them below.
If you have boarders (or children) who are living with you, record them below.
If you are subletting (or leasing) a part of your dwelling, record below your sub-letters (or people you are hosting). Always, if these sub-letters (or hosted persons) are living in totally independent rooms (for example a maid's room entirely separate from the dwelling), these independent rooms are considered as forming a distinct dwelling for which a distinct dwelling form should be established. In this case, do not record the sub-letters in the list below and do not count the rooms which they occupy in the make-up of the dwelling (page 4).
Fill out an individual form number 2 for each person in list A
___ 1 Last name
___ 2 First name
___ 3 Relationship to the head of household
(indicate, for example: head of household, spouse, son, mother, daughter-in-law, nephew, etc. Or: friend, boarder, sub-letter, maid, employee, housed, etc.)
If there are more than 15 people to record, use an additional dwelling form.

No questionnaire text is available for this sample.
The on the first page of the dwelling questionnaire will be filled in with the help of the respondent. The persons living in the dwelling will be grouped by households, within the households by families. By listing the family members the sequence should follow the family ties, or rather the family status. The printed versions at the table will help the classification of the family members. The persons belonging to the same family will be allotted by the same family number while those belonging to the same household will be marked with the same household number.
A common household is a group of persons living together in a common housing unit or in a part of it, bearing together, at least partly, the costs of living (i.e. daily expenses, meals). Subtenants, night-lodgers and co-tenants should be marked always with individual household numbers.
Consequently before starting the enumeration it has to be defined the number of households, families living in the dwelling, than the families and the households should be "set up". The next step is the fixing of the family status.
Family is formed from the following persons living in a common household:
The following persons do not live in a family:
One of the printed answers will be underlined:
In case the household consist of one person the answer is "lone person "9") while in case of several -- related and non-related -- persons not forming a family the answer is either
The title of use of dwelling (heading "e") should be marked in case of every person. The following title of use of dwelling can be marked: owner (including beneficiary user), tenant (including service dwelling), co-owner, co-tenant, subtenant, night-lodger, persons having family ties to the former persons (e.g. child of the owner, brother of the tenant, etc.) as well as courtesy user, inhabitant without legal rights and user upon settlement o contract for life. The right of use on family ties can be marked provided not rental fee is paid. The title of use of dwelling of those renting the entire flat is always "tenant".
If more than 8 persons live in the dwelling an additional Dwelling questionnaire will be used as a supplement.

If the term "joint head" is used accept this without questioning provided the relationship with the other members is clear. The description "Visitor" must be used at Question 3 for a person whose usual residence is elsewhere (see Question 9) even though he/she may be related to the head of the household.
Q.5 and Q.6: Marital status
An entry is required at Question 5 for all persons born on or before 13 April 1971. For children under 15 years of age (i.e. born on or after 14 April l97l), these questions should be left blank. At Question 6 information is required on the present actual marital status irrespective of the legal status. Thus, for example a deserted wife though legally married should have a tick in box 5.

From the responses to Question 4, it is possible to build up a picture of the changing family situation in Ireland. The multiple categories will enable families in multi-generational households to be accurately distinguished. Information in relation to families which have been reconstituted following the break up of previous marriages can also be determined.
The results based on the responses to this question will allow the changing nature of families in Ireland to be charted.

(A person being a head of household should chose answer 1).
The following appears in a table with the familiar relationship within a same dwelling.
Familiar relationship with the family representative (reference person)
In this question we have to fill-in a table with several codes to establish the relation of the private household members and the reference person.
Every classic household must have a reference person.
By reference person, we understand the family member that is considered as such by the other members, has to be a resident in the dwelling, is 18 years old or older and preferentially is responsible for the dwelling.
This reference person must always be a dwelling resident, but may be absent on the census moment.
In families where these conditions do not apply, use the oldest person as the reference person.
On Column 2 you must collect the complete name of the reference person and the first and last name of all the others.
On Column 3 you must apply the corresponding relationship code to every individual in relation to the reference person.
The codes available in this column are:
Codes to be used in the relationship description
Column 4 should only be used for married individuals or living as such with the corresponding spouse number in column 1.
Columns 5 and 6 are only filled-in by individuals who have a father or a mother residing in the dwelling, with the corresponding code number of the father (column 5) and the mother (column 6), using for that purpose the code number that is in column 1.
For columns 4, 5 and 6 you must use only the codes shown on column 1.
To correctly fill-in the family questionnaire you must ask:
Person 2
[Questions 1 to 5 below are also asked of persons 3 to 6]
2. What is the relationship of person 2 to person 1 (reference person)
B-Write the name of everyone in the household who resides in this dwelling and answer questions 2, 3, 4 and 5
2. What is the relationship of person X with the household reference person?
For each person, you need to mark the kinship relation to the household reference person (person 1) according to the options listed.
In case that the kinship relation does not appear on the list, you need to choose "Another relative", for example, in case of an uncle, cousin, brother-in-law, step-mother/father, or the option "Another non-relative" when there is no kinship relation with the respective person, for example, the domestic worker who lives in the household.
[There is an image of question 2]
Kinship relations are considered to be family relations by blood, for example, if a mother of one of the partners in a consensual union resides in the dwelling, she must be considered as the mother-in-law of the household reference person's partner.
49. The level of relationship of the members of the household to the head of the household (column 02).
For the person no.1 (column 01), where the data regarding the head of the household are recorded, the mark x is already pre-typed on the code box 01.
For the other persons recorded in the household, the relationship to the reference head of the household will be indicated, by marking x on the corresponding code for the stated situation:
b) son (daughter) - natural child, foster child, adopted child of the reference, from the actual marriage or previous one; 03
d) son-in-law (daughter-in-law); 04
e) grandson (granddaughter) of the son (of the daughter); 05
f) spouse of nephew/niece 06
g) father (mother)- natural, stepfather (stepmother), or adoptive father (adoptive mother); 07
h) grandfather (grandmother); 08
i) brother (sister) -- by blood or not; 09
j) nephew/niece from brother/(sister); 10
k) brother-in-law (sister-in-law); 11
l) nephew/niece from brother/(sister)-in-low; 12
m) father-in-law (mother-in-law); 13
n) other relative, blood relationship, alliance relationship; 14
For those unrelated, the code will be 15.
When the persons are living alone, and are not included in any household, these will be recorded as the person coded 01 - the head of the household, because it is considered as forming a one-person household.
[p. 36]
The persons who came in locality for a long period and pertain to another household from another locality, will be enumerated separately on the LP-annex form "List of persons in the household". In the box for relationship to the household, "came for a longer period," code 30 will be written.
Q. 1 Relationship to the household
The level of relationship of the members of the household to the head of the household.
48. On the page dedicated to person no.1, where the data regarding the head of the household are recorded, an x mark is already pre-typed in code box 01.
A person who has left the household for a long period of time (more than 6 months) to work, study or for other reasons (marked in Q.2 with code 4, 5 or 6, respectively), is generally not considered to be the head of the household . The person registered in Chapter IV as household head is recorded in Chapter I on the first row.
For other persons recorded in the household registered on the next pages of the PL form, the relationship to the reference head of the household will be indicated by marking x on the corresponding code for the stated situation:
son (daughter) - natural child, foster child, adopted child of the reference person, from the current marriage or a previous one;
son-in-law (daughter-in-law);
grandson (granddaughter) - of the reference person;
father (mother) - natural, stepfather (stepmother), or adoptive father (adoptive mother);
grandfather (grand mother);
brother (sister) - by blood or not;
brother-in-law (sister-in-law);
father-in-law (mother-in-law);
other relative, blood relationship, alliance relationship;
non-related person.
When a person lives alone and is not included in any household, recorded this person as code 01 - the head of the household, because it is considered as forming a one-person household.
48. On the page dedicated to the person no.1, where the data regarding the head of the household are recorded, the mark x is already pre-typed on the code box 01.
The person who left the household for a long period of time is not generally considered as head of the household.
For other persons recorded in the household, the relationship to the reference head of the household will be indicated, by marking x on the corresponding code for the stated situation:
When the persons are living alone, and are not included in any household, these will be recorded as the person coded 01 - the head of the household, because it is considered as forming one person household.
Relationship to the head of the household
If the mother (or father) of this person lives in the same household, indicate the census No. from form P, list A, column 1, under which the mother (or father) is listed Mother's (or father's) No.
One of the following prompts shall be marked.
[Omitted image examples.]
Person who is the first one to be recorded within the household shall be marked in accordance with a prompt "the first one recorded". Other household members - a mark in accordance with one of the following given prompts.
A "wife, husband" prompt mark individuals who are married or live in a civil union. The same mark shall be given to the one who calls himself/herself "the civil wife (husband)", "future wife/husband", "groom (bride)", "boyfriend (girlfriend)", "beloved person" in relation to the individual who was the first to be recorded (provided that these people live in the same household).
A "daughter, son" prompt is marked by own and step children, including adopted children, stepson (stepdaughter). Children under wardship, who are non-relatives and not related to the individual, who was the first to be recorded, are considered to be "non-relatives".
A "mother, father" prompt will be marked by the parents, both related and not-related (stepmother, stepfather).
A "sister, brother" prompt will be marked by sisters and brothers, both related and step.
A "mothers-in-law, fathers-in-law" prompt will be marked by parents of a husband or a wife who was the first to be recorded. With that it does not matter whether marriage was registered or not.
A "sister-in-law (daughter-in-law), son-in-law (brother-in-law)" prompt will be marked by a woman or a man if the first one to be recorded was relative of her (his) husband (wife) regardless whether marriage was registered or not.
A "grandmother, grandfather" prompt will be marked by related and step grandmothers and grandfathers.
A "grandson, granddaughter" prompt will be marked by related and step grandsons and granddaughters, including children of step-daughter (step-son) of the individual who was the one to be recorded.
A "another degree of kinship (of relationship)" prompt will be marked, if a respondent is related to the member of a household in some other way, in addition to the listed (for example, nephews, wife's brother, husband's brother, husband's sister, wife's sister, husband of one's wife's sister, cousins, second cousins, uncle, aunt and etc.).
[pg.31]
If a census taker has doubts about which prompt to mark according to the answer of the respondent, he shall use additional tables on the second page of the Cover, where some of the cases of blood relations are listed.
A "non-relative" prompt shall be marked for those who are a part of this household, but does not have any relative (blood) relations with the first one recorded (for example, hired housekeeper who helps to keep the households - baby-sitter, governess and members of their families, who live within the household and contribute to it, children and seniors under wardship and patronized, who are not relatives to the first one recorded) - for example, a "non-relative" prompt will be marked by the baby-sitter and her daughter. With that, one shall indicate in a special field how he/she is related to the first one to be recorded within the household (for example, a baby-sitter, a daughter of a baby-sitter, a hired employee, tutored step-child).
Every member of a household (regardless of age and whether he is married or not) living within the same household with both parents or only one of them, shall be marked with a serial number of his/her mother (either related or step-mother) from column B of Table 1 of Form S. If there is no mother in the household, and there is only father (related or step-father), then the serial number of a father will be indicated. If there is neither mother nor father in the household, then neither mark is put.
Serial number of a mother (father) is put only in case they belong to the same household with the respondent. If children live with their parents in the same premise but refer to other premises, then the number of a mother (father) should not be marked.
In case household consists of one person then this person is indicated as "the first one to be recorded".
[Omitted example images.]
Individuals who permanently reside in dormitories, hotels and rest houses are regarded as independent households. For example, if three students live in the same room of a dormitory and consider that each of them lives independently (not combining the sources for food and utilities), then they shall be enumerated as three independent households, each of them consisting of 1 person.
[pg.32]
If the think they live as one household (keep the house, combine their income either wholly or partially), they make up one household, consisting of non-relatives. If two of them live within one household (keep the house, combine their income either wholly or partially), and the third one lives separately (not combining their means for food and utilities), then they shall be enumerated as two households, consisting of two and one person respectively. Family, permanently residing in a hotel, is enumerated as a private household, consisting of relatives.
In collective households the question 1 is filled in the following way:
4. Relation to the tenant ____
2. Relationship to the user of dwelling
8. Relationships between household members
Household inhabitants
Residential household consists of persons living together in one apartment.
A census household consists of persons who share one apartment on the basis of family or other relationships within a single household. The census household is a basic unit and is not further divided.
We recognize:
The household consists of persons living together in the same apartment and jointly covering any major expenditures of the household (expenditures for the use of the apartment, meals, maintenance of the apartment or house, heating, electricity, gas, and others). The amount of joint coverage of the household cost is irrelevant. A single household may consist of one or more census households.
Relations between household members
Data on relations between household members provide information on what kind of relationship (relatives or other) is between persons living in one dwelling (residential household). Each residential household needs to be headed by one person. The head of the household could be any adult member who, according to the agreement of its members, was habitually resident in the apartment (he/she spent most of the year there, usually spending the day or night in the apartment). Other members in the household were defined in relation to the head of the household as a spouse, partner, son, daughter, son-in-law, bride, grandson, great-grandson, father, mother, mother-in-law, father-in-law, other relatives, a stranger, or lodger.
8. Relation to the household reference person _ _
8 Relation to the household reference person
The data are copied by the enumerator from column 8 of the POM/GO List of persons in the household for all persons, irrespective of whether they are household members or they are only temporarily present in the household/dwelling.
For a person living in the household alone (a single household), the enumerator always enters code 00.
For persons who according to Guidelines for Enumerators are not entered into the POM/GO List of persons in the household (institutional households), the enumerator enters data directly on the P-3 Census questionnaire for persons so that the first person in the institutional household gets code 20 and all other persons in the institutional household get code 21.
For persons who are not household members and who according to Guidelines for Enumerators are not entered into the POM/GO List of persons in the household, the enumerator enters for all persons code 60 directly on the P-3 Census questionnaire for persons.
