Report of Scottish Census for
1911 This Report will
be issued in three volumes. The First Volume will deal more especially with
information required for local administrative purposes, and with information
of local interest. The Second Volume will contain information applicable to
Scotland as a whole and, to a large extent, will be a summary of the First
Volume, but with the omission of much local detail. The Third Volume will be
devoted to special statistical studies, such as the fertility of married
women, the occupations of foreigners, and the numbering of the infirm and
such like.
The First Volume will be issued in 37 parts, the first four of them
containing the Returns for the Cities of Edinburgh, Glasgow, Dundee, and
Aberdeen, and the remaining 33 containing the Returns for the Counties
exclusive of these cities. The county parts will be issued in alphabetical
order.

Census of Great Britain, 1851
Religious Worship and Education in Scotland
Her Majesty’s Government decided that it was
desirable, on taking the Census of 1851, to collect statistics as to the
accommodation afforded by the various Churches and other Places of Public
Religious Worship, and the number of persons frequenting them: also as to
the existing Educational Establishments and the number of Scholars under
instruction.
It was afterwards found that the Census Act did not render it compulsory
upon any one to give information upon these points : the inquiry therefore
was pursued as a purely voluntary investigation.
The following Tables relating to Scotland and the Islands in the British
Seas are not so complete as is desirable ; but civil registration of Births,
Deaths, and Marriages not having been established in Scotland, I have not
had the same opportunity of supplying deficiencies in the Returns made from
Scotland as has been afforded me in this country by means of the Registrars
of Births and Deaths throughout England and Wales.
The superintendence of this branch of the Census has been intrusted by me
chiefly to Mr. Horace Mann, who has given unremitting attention to the duty
undertaken by him, and has executed it in a manner which, I trust, will be
approved by your Lordship.
I have the honour to be,
My Lord,
Your faithful servant,
GEORGE GRAHAM,
Registrar-General
