Entries on pp1-2 are undated.
The earliest date shown, on p3, is 1903. The register is laid out to record the following information: child's name and sex; cause of the child's being maintained by the guardians; details of the resolution bringing the child under their control including child's age at the time; date at which the child will be 18 years old; religious creed; where maintained and, if boarded-out, with whom and date; subsequent notes; name and address of parents if known. However, only the later entries actually record the date of the 18th birthday, creed or parental address.
