*Note.—In 1899 the two Wards of St. Peter and St. John were divided into three Sanitary Districts, St. Peter's, St. John's and All Saints'.
The Registrar-General had up to 1904 refused to give information as to the locality of the births, and
The births in each Ward are
† Average years, 1899-1907. ‡ Average years, 1898-1907.
therefore I am unable to give the number of births in each Ward for the years prior to 1906.
shown in this report for 1905, 1906, 1907 and 1908.
