In the 1851 Census, 149 people gave their birthplace as a parish in Hampshire, by far the largest number for any county in Great Britain. This dot distribution map shows where those births took place. The larger the dot, the more birth events in that parish. The colour of the dots relates to the period in which the birth took place. A
table showing the parishes and the numbers given for each appears under the map.
Five people gave their birthplace as just Hampshire, no specified parish, and one gave the parish of
Heaton Hampshire, which I have been unable to locate. These six people are therefore not plotted on the map although they appear on this table:
