Enumeration districts - Merionethshire

[Dolgoch1]

Please is there an online source outside the subscription platforms where a more detailed list of EDs for each census explaining the parishs /sub parishes within each ED?

thanks

If you go to the National archive site:
http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/default.htm

You can, with some perseverance, get to their catalogue, it is frustratingly difficult to navigate the site, because at every click they try to send you to one of the subscription sites that pay them royalties.

The Census enumeration descriptions are in  catalogue numbers HO 107, RG 9 to  RG 14 and RG 78. If you you get to the right page, before throwing your computer at the wall in frustration, the info included isn't very valuable. It will look something like this:

General Register Office: 1901 Census Returns RG 13/5254

Registration Sub-District: Barmouth Civil Parish, Township or Place: Barmouth Dolgelly Hendremynach . Registration Sub-District: Barmouth Civil Parish, Township or Place: Barmouth Dolgelly Hendremynach General Register Office: 1901 Census Returns Merionethshire
Date: 1901.

The best option is probably to use this board to ask those of us who have paid subscriptions for more specific information. Which ED are you looking for? Why do you need to know about the ED divisions?  Which house / person are you looking for and in which Census? etc
