CENSUS

RETURNS

FOR

HARVINGTON

1921


The census was taken on the 19th June 1921, a day or so before or after would have effected the listing with those who had not arrived or had moved on. The initials of the inumerator appear to WMC, however it is not clear who is this individual.

Great hope was placed in the 1921 census in pinning down who lived where and although in many ways it is of great help, it has been disappointing in the lack of naming of houses or even streets. Many of the properties had not acquired names and much effort has been made to identify families within these properties, helped greatly by the inumerator following a precise route. One particular interesting aspect is the recording of most of the then new Council houses that were being built up the Leys Road, which indicates building is in progress.
