Each image contains one family. Mother and Father are usually called out as such or as "Parents" then children are listed.  The father will be the head of the household. All forms are filed alphabetically according to the head of the family. If the head of the family was a widow, the form is filed under her name if the name of her former husband is not given. If several children are living away from home and have been entered upon a census form as children with no parents shown, the form is filed under the name of the first listed person. The forms for widows usually have the surname of the husband in the upper right-hand corner and that is the name under which the form is filed. All the forms for the same family have been placed together whenever possible. The entire family, with the name of each member living with the family at the time of the census, is given. In many cases, the names of the husbands were not given if they were not members of the church. In these cases, the forms are filed under the married name of the wife. However, if the name of the husband is known, the form is filed in the regular manner whether he was a member of the church or not.
