ANOTHER MILESTONE


With the addition of the VICKERY/VICKARY spelling I have been adding names to my index very quickly and have just reached the 15,000 mark.

Most recently I have been entering all the VICKERY/VICKARY details from the UK 1851 census. This has certainly highlighted the growth of this spelling in Somerset and the rest of UK compared with the 1841 records, and compared with the almost static numbers of VICARYs in Devon.

Devon  Vicary          1841 census 424  1851 census 508  increase 84
Devon Vickery         1841 census 418  1851 census 400 decrease 18

Somerset Vicary       1841 census 146  1851 census 50   decrease 96
Somerset Vickery     1841 census 418  1851 census 512  increase 94  

Rest of UK Vicary    1841 census 122  1851 census 134  increase 12
Rest of UK Vickery  1841 census 514  1851 census 643  increase 129

Total UK  Vicary      1841 census 692    1851 census   692 increase zero
Total UK Vickery     1841 census 1350  1851 census 1555 increase 205

Note the large number of Vickerys outside Devon & Somerset in both 1841 and 1851
         the  total Vicary UK population was identical in 1841 and 1851 ie no overall increase
         the Devon and Somerset Vickery  population in 1841 was identical at 418
