Other sources used by me in compiling this web site include:
- 1841, 1851, 1861, 1871, 1881, 1891 and 1901 censuses, for which I have extracted head of household information, their occupation and number in household as a minimum
- trade directories for 1913, 1920-1, 1928, 1933, 1940: these cover the whole High Street with the exception of 1920-1 (numbers 1 - 211 only)
- tithe returns for Old Brentford (1839 - 1841) and New Brentford (1838)
- 1909/10 Valuation Records
