Known missing places from 1939 Register

Known missing places from 1939 Register

The districts, or parts of districts, shown in the list below are those believed to have been missed at the time of the original 1939 national registration on 29th September 1939. Therefore, as they do not appear in the surviving registers, they do not exist in the images and transcriptions created from the registers, and will not be found during searches of the 1939 Register.

It is understood that missing persons/streets/areas (i.e. late registrants) would have been entered into the so-called “current” register which was maintained by the State and which also included those arriving in England & Wales, and those born in England & Wales, after 29th September. The current register is closed and was not part of the 1939 Register project.

This list is a work in progress and additional districts, or parts of districts, will be added as and when they are conclusively proven to have been missed during national registration in 1939.
