* The births recorded in North-West Paddington prior to 1901, have been calculated from the births registered in the (old) Kensal Town Registration Sub-District
of Chelsea on the basis of the proportion of the population transferred to Paddington. The figures are consequently somewhat theoretical, but the best available.
