In table BRT_1889_06_T1:

  • Column A has several source errors: e.g. cell A2703 should read 'Enschede', but instead it contains nothing. Its actual contents are placed a few columns to the right (thus in the dump this is interpreted as if the previous municipality still continues). Same applies to some cells where the occupation class (column B) has been switched with municipality (column A) and we probably are interpreting things like 'X' or 'VII' as municipalities

Same table:

most of the names of muni’s are listed in column A, but some are listed in column E

  • Name / [Column.Row] / Amsterdam code
  • Enschede [E2703] 10364
  • Raalte [E4939] 10279
  • Steenwijkerwold [E5812] 11347
  • Tubbergen [E6063] 10694
  • Wierden [E6300] 10676

There is also an issue with Almelo. In the 1889 census both “Almelo Stad” and “Almelo” are mentioned. Almelo Stad is a unique name and the Amsterdam code is 11053.
“Almelo” is less easy: The Amsterdam code distinguishes between “Almelo_1", “Almelo_2" and "Ambt Almelo”. Since Almelo_1 stopped to exist in 1-7-1818 and Almelo_2 started only in 1-1-1914, the “Almelo” mentioned in the census data, must be “Ambt Almelo” (amco==11065)
