Below you will find extra information on the Hann family from the free search on the 1911 census sorted by individual Registration District. These I have tried to analyse and provide some background.

As with all transcriptions due to the quality of the original and sometimes the knowledge of the transcriber there are errors, as any transcription is only as good as what the transcriber believes they are seeing.  I have now resolved those few mis-transcriptions I have found by deleting Ham, Hain, Hanna, Wann, Slann etc records from the list and adding those that I have found elsewhere, like Haun (a name I have only ever seen in transcriptions), Harn, Harm and most have now been amended in the indexes.  I haven't dared though to try those under Ham.  By the law of averages there are bound to be others that ought to be included, if you come across any, do let me know

I have not analysed Northumbrian Hanns as I don't have sufficient knowledge yet of these families and am also limited by the amount of time I can devote to the task.
