Here we are presenting statistics for a historical unit, which may have changed its boundaries significantly during the period covered.
In 1871, and earlier, the census described the whole of the Scilly Islands as in St. Mary's Parish, but then listed data for the individual islands. From 1891 onwards, the islands were listed as separate civil parishes. However, in 1881 there is just a single entry for the islands as a whole, with a footnote listing the islands.
The following alternative names exist:
Name | Status | Language | Start | End | Authority |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
ST MARY | Preferred | English | 1871 Census of England and Wales, Table 4, 'Area; Houses and Inhabitants, 1861 and 1871, in the Parishes and Places comprised in each Superintendent Registrar's District'. | ||
SCILLY ISLANDS | Alternate | English | 1881 Census of England and Wales, Table 4, 'Area, Houses, and Population of Civil Parishes in the several Registration Sub-Districts in 1871 and 1881'. |
