I estimate the population of Ilford by—
Adding the increase of births over
deaths 409
And the increase by immigration
of new residents to new houses,
placed on the register during the
year—600 houses at 5 persons
each 3,000
And occasional double families in
one house 100
To the estimated population last
year 18,013
21,522
Or in round numbers 21,500.
The density of the population of the district, including
Claybury Asylum and Dr. Barnardo's Village Home is about
2.943 Per acre.
The number of persons per house in the district, excluding
Claybury Asylum and Dr. Barnardo's Village Home is
about 5.
The total number of deaths which occurred in the district
during the year 1897 was 481, 248 of which were at Claybury
Asylum, and 6 at Dr. Barnardo's Home, leaving 227 for the
rest of the district, or at the rate of 10.562 per 1,000 per
annum of the population.
The number of births was 636, one of which was at Claybury
Asylum, leaving 635 for the rest of the district, or at
