Notes: On the voter’s register numbers 3086 to 3168 appear to have been assigned to Bosbury Parish. Of these 83 voters, 60 have registered their vote - a very respectable turnout. In the two neighbouring parishes of Castle Frome and Coddington a total of 16 people are registered but only half voted.

The bound volume for Herefordshire is available at Hereford Library.
