Abstract

Main Topics:

This dataset is comprised of selected Division level census counts for the dominion of Newfoundland, Canada derived from the published census reports of 1911, 1935 and 1945. It forms part of a larger project entitled 'The Orange Order in the 20th century: A study in social change'. This wider study explores the relative impact of techno-economic, cultural and institutional factors on Orange Order membership and political influence in twentieth century Scotland, Canada and Northern Ireland

Please note: this study does not include information on named individuals and would therefore not be useful for personal family history research.
