SURVIVING SOLDIERS, ETC., AND INMATES OF SOLDIERS'

HOMES.

[A special enumeration of Union survivors of the war of the rebellion was made at the census of 1890, using for this purpose a special schedule on which spaces were provided for the entry of the record of service of 50 persons. The inquiries were printed at the heads of columns and the entries made on horizontal cross lines. A supplemental schedule was also used in 1890 for the enumeration of inmates of soldiers' homes, on which the inquiries were printed at the heads of columns and the entries made on horizontal cross lines, spaces for 15 entries being provided on each schedule.]

Enumerator.

NOTE. The provision of the act of March 1, 1889, under which this special enumeration of survivors of the war of the rebellion is made, reads as follows:

"That said Superintendent shall, under the authority of the Secretary of the Interior, cause to be taken on a special schedule of inquiry, according to such form as he may prescribe, the names, organizations, and length of service of those who had served in the Army, Navy, or Marine Corps of the United States in the war of the rebellion, and who are survivors at the time of said inquiry, and the widows of soldiers, sailors, or marines."

The entries concerning each survivor or widow should be carefully and accurately made, so that the printed reports may contain only thoroughly trustworthy information.

a This must include clothing, subsistence, books, furniture, bedding, etc., all the items which are called for in the monthly statements of issues and expenditures at schools, except cost of repairs, which will be given separately in answer to question 23. b Name the parties making the contributions, and the amount given by each.

Spaces are provided on this special schedule for the entry of 50 names, or, more properly, terms of service. The spaces are numbered consecutively from 1 to 50, and cover the four pages comprised in each schedule. The inquiries made concerning each survivor or widow call for the repetition of the number of the house and family as returned on the general population schedule (No. 1), the name, rank, company, regiment, or vessel, date of enlistment, date of discharge, and length of service (in years, months, and days) on the upper half of each page, and the post-office address, disability incurred, and general remarks on the lower half of each page. The column headedRemarks" is intended to be used to cover any points not included in the foregoing inquiries, and which are necessary to a complete statement of a person's term of service in any one organization.

In the case of persons having served in more than one organization, use as many spaces as may be necessary to cover their various terms of service. In the case of widows of deceased soldiers, sailors, or marines, make the entry of her name on the dotted line, as follows:

Mary J., widow of

Brown, James H.,

filling out the record of his service during the war, and giving under "Post-office address" the present address of his widow.

SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR FILLING SCHEDULE.

Please notice that in this special schedule the pages are numbered consecutively, and follow the order indicated, so that the schedule, when filled, may be in proper shape for binding in this office.

The instructions necessary to the proper filling of the columns numbered 1 to 27, inclusive, are contained in the book of instructions to enumerators (pages 15 to 33), a copy of which is inclosed. The following special instructions will serve as a guide in completing the information concerning inmates of soldiers' homes called for by the columns numbered 28 to 68, inclusive.

It will be seen at a glance that the greater part of these special inquiries are to be answered by the word Yes" or "No." A diagonal mark (/) will be understood to mean yes; a horizontal dash (-) means no. Experience has shown that where enumerators leave a space blank the clerks who handle the schedules in this office are often uncertain whether this is because the answer is no, or because the correct answer is unknown. In all cases, therefore, where the answer is unknown, the space should be filled by two horizontal lines (=). If the question asked is inapplicable to the person enumerated, fill the blank by a cross-mark (X). No line of any column

should be left blank.

Under the causes of admission or retention it may be necessary to make more than one affirmative mark. For instance, an inmate may be old, bedridden, or paralytic. A full account of the case would require a diagonal mark in each of the columns numbered 33, 34, and 38.

Under inquiries 51 to 68, where a person served in more than one organization, the particulars for the first period of service should be given on the schedule itself, and the particulars for the second and subsequent periods of service should be entered on the "extra service sheet," copies of which are inclosed. In all cases give the rank held at muster-out, the company and regiment, and the dates of enlistment and discharge as regards each organization.

In making the record of extra service, be careful to enter in the column on the extra service sheet marked "X" the "number of the page and line on the schedule for the person for whom this 'extra service' is reported," as 3-1, meaning page 3 and line 1 of this schedule; also enter in the column of this schedule numbered 69 the "number of the page and line on the 'extra service sheet' containing the record for this person as to extra service," as 1-10, meaning page 1 and line 10 of the extra service sheet.
