District Level Census Transcription Status: Help
This page displays a summary of progress on the
transcription of a particular district of a census of Canada.
It displays one row for each
census division in the district whether or not any transcription work
has been performed. This page therefore provides a convenient way to
identify all work to be done in the district.
For each division it displays:
- The sub-district identifier. For the 1871 through 1901 censuses this
is generally a letter of the alphabet. For other censuses it is a
sequential number, either within the province for pre-confederation
censuses, or within the district.
- The division number, if any.
Note that although divisions were not officially used for post-1901
censuses there are sub-districts which comprise several separate
enumerations, each with their unique sequence of page numbers and
family numbers. These are treated by this application as
separate divisions.
- The name of the sub-district.
- The number of individuals transcribed so far within the division.
Note that individuals for whom the name has been transcribed but not
the age at the time of the enumeration count for only 1/2.
- The total number of individuals enumerated within the division.
- The percentage completion of the transcription.
This field is color-coded running from dark
red for no work done so far through to bright green for 100% completion.
- The percentage of individuals in the division who have been linked
to the family tree. This field is color-coded running from dark
red for no work done so far through to bright green for 100% completion.
- A "button" to display
the status of each
page within the division.
At the bottom of the table the total number of individuals transcribed
in this district is displayed, along with the total number of individuals
enumerated within the district,
the color-coded percentage completion of the transcription for the district,
and the color-coded percentage completion of linking to the family tree.
