There were no records, at all, indexed as being in Russell or pages grouped as being in Russell. This has to be some kind of mixup because Russell didn't just temporarily cease to exist.

5 persons employed in agriculture

The numerical tally appears to be in error because the enumerator shows five persons engaged in agriculture, and these would presumably be the five older males.
