INDEX OF PLACES IN ENGLAND AND WALES

These pages are intended to be used in conjunction with the list of Registration Districts in England and Wales 1837-1930. For each place listed, this index shows the county and registration district in which they were situated during the years 1837-1930.

The county names are abbreviated using the three-letter Chapman Codes. Note that some places formed part of two or three counties until the end of the nineteenth century, and some were transferred from one county to another at various times. The registration districts were also used when compiling the decennial census returns from 1851 to 1921.

Any comments or queries regarding these listings should be sent to Brett Langston at b.langston@zetnet.co.uk.
