The first and second volumes of the series of detailed
abstracts of the census of 1911 were published in July 1912.
For this census the results are presented first in subject volumes
relating to the country as a whole, and finally the statistics in
these subject volumes are collated and published for counties or
groups of counties. The subject volumes fall into two groups:
(a) Population statistics, and (6) social statistics. The first
group is to consist of six volumes—namely, the two, now
published, dealing with administrative and Poor Law or registration
areas; the third and fourth with parliamentary and
ecclesiastical areas respectively; and the fifth with the various
kinds of dwellings; the sixth being a general index to all places
mentioned in the population tables. The second group will
consist of volumes containing statistics of (l) ages and condition
as to marriage, (2) tenements, (3) birthplaces, (4) infirmities, (5)
occupations and industries, (6) language spoken in Wales and
Monmouthshire, and (7) fertility of marriage. It will be seen
from this list that the census of 1911 embraced some new
subjects of inquiry, and this extension of the scope of the
census, coupled with the demand for more detailed tabulation
generally, necessarily involves a considerable addition to the
work of preparing the statistics.
