World War II Identity Cards

[Hemingbrough Historian]

World War II Identity Cards

46 million residents in Britain received Identity Cards a few days after National Registration Day, Friday, September 29th 1939.  One of the 65,000 government enumerators would have delivered a form and then collected it on the Sunday and Monday after Registration Day.  My Mother’s Identity Number records the four letter Enumeration District Code (YNTZ) plus her line number of the Schedule that was completed by the enumerator, (Line 65) and her position as the 7th person in the household.  I cannot find a list of District Codes but from the size of household I assumed she was living at Hawthorn Bank, Spalding.  Can anyone help me, please?
