Great Burdon OPS - 1939 Register
Location: Great Burdon, Durham, England, United Kingdom
Surname/tag: Great_Burdon
The 1939 Register of England and Wales was a record of every civilian in England and Wales which was taken at the outbreak of the Second World War. The Act of Parliament which authorised this was the National Registration Act 1939 which received royal assent on 5 September, two days after the declaration of war on Germany.
National Registration Day was 29 September 1939, prior to which forms were distributed to every household in Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Once completed, forms were collected, and identity cards issued to the residents. The completed forms were also collated into a national register. The register was also used to organise rationing and subsequently formed the basis of records for the National Health Service (NHS) who continued to use, and update, the records until 1991.
The records are arranged by enumeration district, household or institution, national registration number. The enumeration districts were based on the districts used for the 1931 Census adjusted to account for changes in population and local government boundaries. The records contain the following information for each person within a household:
- Address
- Schedule number and sub-number
- Full name
- Sex
- Date of birth
- Marital status
- Occupation
The registers may also note whether the individual concerned had volunteered as an air raid warden, special constable or any other special duties. As a result of being used as the basis of NHS records, subsequent changes of name are noted on these records.
