1901 Census    

Transcription of the 1901 Census for the Parish of Norton Bavant

The following pages have been transcribed from the original census returns. The following should be noted:

1. The 5 columns detailing habitation have been omitted. In the few cases where a property was not habited, this has been indicated in the Name column. Similarly, information from the columns concerning working at home and medical information has been incorporated under Profession or Occupation.

2. The schedule numbers on the original return actually start at 51, entries for Corsley preceding those for Norton Bavant, but for this transcription, schedule numbers have been started at no. 1 for clarity.

3. Original spellings have been retained, even when obviously incorrect (e.g. Aberganny/Abergavenny, e.g. Hidla for Hilda)

I should be pleased to receive any comments or additional information.
