I suppose Rutland Belle would regard the transcribers at Ancestry as very PC - they will often hide the disability in the place of birth (although I think the reference to Fife somewhat unflattering): |

The ticks are probably just the enumerator's marks as he worked through his patch. |

Have you checked the same person in the 1891 census. If they did have a disability it may show in that census. Irene |

If there was any form of disability, it would be specified in the column........for example, if someone was blind, it would actually say so. |
