Census Information
Crown Copyright data with some additions, amendments and corrections, provided under Open Government Licence 2010
The digitized CEBs that form the basis of these Household Tables lack PRO references and seem to have already been modified to improve their accuracy (using local knowledge). I have taken this process a bit further by checking against the ‘vital records’ available to me. The Census records you see below may therefore be quite different to the original CEBs but the information they contain should be more reliable. Please correct any errors you notice, citing your sources.
