Text:

The 1831 census was the first to provide some information about individual occupations, but was also the last not to be based on a detailed door-to-door survey: it still relied heavily on the network of parish priests, but they seem to have been diligent in gathering this information. The available data cover males over 20 only. The nine categories they used were as much to do with different industries than with social status. However, here we present the percentage of males over 20 who were described either as "Agriculture: Occupiers employing Labourers" or as "Capitalists, Bankers, Professional and other Educated Men".
