Alteration of Registration Sub-Districts.— During 1899 the Registrar-General
issued an Order, to take effect on the 1st January, 1900, transferring parts of
No. 2 and No. 3 Wards, formerly included in Kentish Town Sub-District,
respectively to Regent's Park and Camden Town Sub-Districts.
The number of inhabited houses and population contained in these two parts, according to the census of 1891, were as follows:—
| Sub-District separated from. | Sub-District united with. | Inhabited Houses. | Population, 1891. | ||

In the weekly returns of the Registrar-General since January, 1900, the enumerated population of the several Sub-Districts for 1896 are also given, and from them the alteration of figures at that date appears to be as follows:—

population, and the number of tenements occupied by the population with those
of the preceding Census, the following figures in reference to the altered Registration
Sub-Districts have been supplied by the Registrar-General from the Census
