There's a lot of good info on the 1911 census that isn't on the others - like number of children both living and dead, and number of rooms in the dwelling (2 adults and up to 9 kids in one 4 room house is beyond my understanding - no way would I have been able to share a room with my sister without one of us killing the other!!), number of years married too.
