Halstead Population Survey 1822 & 1827

A transcription of a document compiled by the Halstead church authorities and deposited at Essex Record Office, Chelmsford, listing households within the parish, giving details of the occupants.  Believed to have been started in 1822 and updated with further entries in 1827 the list is thought not to contain all parish residents.  Its purpose is unknown.  Entries give the name, address, age and occupation of the householder together with the age of any spouse, the sex and age of each child, the name of the person employing the householder and the parish to which the householder belongs.
