The enumerator has added extra information in one of the columns, how do I record it?

Enumerators, or the clerks that tallied the data, sometimes added marks or numbers to columns. In the 1852 Census for example, one will often find Xs or other marks in the 'residence' column that indicate various things including marital status. This data does not relate to the purpose of the column, which is to record the residence if out of district limits, and should not be recorded in the residence column.

Remember that the original image is only a click away so any extra information on the form is readily available there. The rule is to only transcribe data under a column if that data relates to that column. More.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
