Harrow Buildings and Occupiers:
This folder contains a numbered list from 1 to 81 of who lived in the buildings and when as well as people who lived walking distance to Harrow.

These pages were to form a chapter in Marj’s book she was writing.

Marj referenced some of her research by Allotment numbers and Sections which refers to how the Town of Harrow was surveyed, and divided into allotments which people were able to purchase. The allotments were in specific sections. The map Township of Harrow Parish of Harrow County of Lowan Harrow Map provides the Allotment numbers and Sections.

The Rates folder which contains information from the North Harrow District Road Board dated from 2nd February 1864 to 1955 could be used to cross reference the details contained in the Harrow Buildings and Occupiers folder.
Note: The Photo folders are also referenced by Section number.
