Little help with Census

[GUT]

Hope someone can help looking at a Census and some headings I've not seen before across the page are

Address
X
Surname
Forenames
Rel
X
C
Sex
Age
Occupation

Now most are self-evident, but what are the "X" columns and

Does the "C" whch appears to be "m" "u" or "w" translate to marital status.

Thanks in advance.

Different headings were included in different years, GUT. What year and country was it? Some columns were for administration purposes.
You are right on the last bit-'m', 'u', and 'w' refer to marital status.

So I've now got a bloke who was always thought to have never married showing as married.

The Columns headed "X" appear to be empty on the pages I've seen. So maybe nothing.
