In Table 36 will be found the numbers of the inhabitants in each class of home placed on
the Register, following the form used by the Registrar-General in his Census Reports, but
distinguishing persons aged 10 years and upwards from those at younger ages. The table is
of interest as showing the extent to which overcrowding on the standard prescribed by the
By-la ws differs from the overcrowding estimated by the Registrar-General. In the course of
registration only 63 families were found to be overcrowded according to the former standard,
while the Table shows that on the Registrar-General's standard, no fewer than 188 families
would be held to be overcrowded.
