Fife Registration DistrictNames and Numbers
Due to the extremely high number of recent e mails to The Fife Post regarding parish numbers etc., I decided to list a page of all the Fife registration numbers from
1855 to the present day.
Many of the Parishes as you know them, have disappeared and are included in different districts.

Dysart 1851 Census (Partial)
Throughout my research for my own ancestors I look up many census returns etc., so I decided to share what I found in Dysart during my search for the surnames PHILP and ADAMSON, Other names do occur so it is worth a check.
It may help other researchers,
please understand this does NOT cover the whole parish.
