(2) The date of commencement of all Church of England parish registers before 1813. (3) The name of the county in which the place was situated in 1831. (4) The distance in miles from the next largest place. (5) The population of each place as of 1831. (6) The ecclesiastical jurisdiction of each parish. (7) Nonconformist groups as listed in the 1831 edition of Lewis' 'Topographical Dictionary'. (8) Corrections and additions to the above information as found in reference books and based on more than twenty years of research". -- Preface, p. vii.
