  • 1921 Census References

    From Jenny M Benson@21:1/5 to All on Thu May 11 21:25:09 2023
    For one of my relative's 1921 Census transcription, FindMyPast includes
    the District Reference

    RD 447 RS 2 ED 3, 4

    When I look at the original documents the Enumeration District is shown
    as 4.

    I have come across other 1921 Census records where the District
    Reference includes 2 numbers (separated by a comma and space) for the ED.

    Can anyone explain why there are sometimes 2 numbers? (I don't remember
    ever seeing this in the 1911 Census.

    More than one book/file?
    Have you got an example of such a reference?
