1881 Cranbrook Census
Reference RG 11/938: Cranbrook Enumeration District No 8; District: Cranbrook Union; Enumerator: William Lance
District No 8. All the houses on the North side of Sissinghurst Street commencing at the King's Head Corner and continuing to Three Chimneys. Also all the houses eastward of the road commencing at the King's Head Corner to Relf's Corner and along the Frittenden Road as far as the limits of the Parish extend.
Please note:
  • These census records have been transcribed from images of the original census sheets. Whilst all care has been taken, the result is an interpretation of the original which is available at Local Record Offices, from The National Archives, and from ancestry.co.uk
  • Occupation has been unified (e.g. Ag Lab, Farm Lab, and many other such recordings are all displayed as Farm labourer).
  • The Sheet Number is as shown on the original document and is linked to a page showing all the entries on that Sheet (as well as entries from the following or previous sheet where the entry for the location covers more than one sheet).
  • In those instances where the Census entry is incorrect or missing and it has been possible from other sources to derive a correction, then these changes are shown inside square brackets, e.g. [Wife]
