This guide explains how to record information about a home through the census. With GRAMPS 1.0.x we had to re-enter the information each individual. With the "drag and drop" GRAMPS 2.x and the tool '''Clipboard''' this repetition is reduced. '''WARNING''' This page describes the seizure '''GRAMPS 2.2. X'''.''planned to change illustrations related to text soon''
The French census are with [[sources|Registrations]], a very important source of information to validate family ties or fill gaps in the civil status. The first official census date ''1801'' followed by ''1816-1817''. Finally, all the ''5'' years, ''1831'' to 1946 with few exceptions.
First, we should add the census as a source so that it can be mentioned when we add all the records of individuals. To create this source, click on the icon of sources in the list of icons on the left side of the window. Now right-click button to add. Fill in the dialog with the details of the source, Figure 2 illustrates information completed for the French census.

For example, ''Census 1850-1870, Strasbourg-Robertsau, No. 202.'' Then go on the label / tab '''Repositories''', select or add a deposit and enter the phone number field with the symbol/reference your source. Once all the written information, click '''OK''' of the dialog box.

Now add the image of the page census gramps. You do not need to do this but this may help maintain the original documents. To add click the image on the label / tab '''Gallery''' the source editor. Now click on the icon to add the icon bar on the right. Locate the image and click '''OK''' to add it to gramps.
Once the image has been added, click the image name and choose Edit menu properties. You can fill much of the information of properties. You should at least complete information source. You should now fill the references to the source with information from the Census page. Figure 3 shows the dialogue achieved.

You might have to write this information for each census-related information that you add to gramps. This can become rather tiresome after a few records. To help you re-enter information, the tool '''Clipboard''' can be used to easily copy a reference from one record to another.
Now we must add the remaining information to John Martin. Change to address the label and click the button to add a positive new address (or identification or residency). See Figure 6 dialogue achieved address. Do not forget to add the reference source to the label. Once the address is complete click '''OK''' and then drag the recording addresses on '''Clipboard'''. The registration address will be reused when we complete the rest of the family.
You can also add an attribute (if needed).See Figure 7 attribute dialogue. [[Image: add_attr_1.png|Figure 7 adding the attribute|thumb]] and other events.
See Figure 8 Dialogue event.
