The questions included in this chapter have the purpose of knowing the distribution of the population by sex, age and civil state; their territorial distribution and movements made within the country in the last 5 years.
You should ask the questions in this chapter to all people who are to be enumerated in the home, including also small children and little babies.
First, locate the head of household.
Head of household: It is the person recognized as such by the other members of the home.
The first question that you will ask will be: What is the name and surname of every one of the people who slept last night in this home?
Begin with the head of household.
[p. 42]
Following this, you will write down the names and surnames of all people, insisting on finding out if there are any young children not written down.
Remember to clarify also, that any person for work reasons did not sleep there the night before the "Day of the Census", and returned or returns today, should be enumerated in this home.
When possible, while writing down the names and surnames try to maintain the correct order, following from the head:
2. Child of the head
3. Son or daughter in-law of the head
4. Parents and mother or father in-laws of the head
5. Other relatives of the head
6. Domestic servants
7. Others not related
In all cases you should write down the first name plus the paternal surname.
When it is a married woman, write down the first name, paternal surname and the surname of the husband.
[An example has been omitted]
[p. 43]
In collective homes you should distinguish those people who are members of the collective home, from those others who, having been passing the night in it for reasons of work, have their own private home, where they will return on the "Day of the Census".
In collective homes there will not be a head of household, there will only be members of the collective home and you will enumerate them beginning with any of them.
Then write down the names and surnames of all people who are to be enumerated in the home, you will complete, for each one of them, the rest of the questions vertically.
[p. 44]
For question No. 2, "What relation or relationship do you have with the head of household?", you should mark the corresponding box, according to the obtained answer.
In the case of collective homes you will mark the box "Member of the collective home" for all people.
