Here we are presenting statistics for a historical unit, which may have changed its boundaries significantly during the period covered.
Firth and Stenness were listed simply as separate parishes in the earliest censuses. In 1841 they have separate entries but are described as united. Between 1861 and 1891 they appear as a single entry, but from 1901 onwards they revert to individual listings. They appear separately in all Poor Law listings. Given this complexity, we include no dates for their relationship.
We know of no alternate names.
