Population trajectory across census years
| Year | Population |
|---|---|
| 1891 | 1,177 |
| 1901 | 3,003 |
Cross-year identity established by spatial polygon overlap (SAME_AS chains across the Canadian Census Subdivision boundary files).
Boundary continuity (non-identical overlaps)
Spatial polygon overlaps with adjacent census years where the boundary shifted enough that the SAME_AS chain didn't merge them. These show where the territory came from and went to even when it isn't tracked as the same persistent place.
Earlier boundary forms
- In an earlier year, this CSD contained Hanover, 1891 (62.8% share).
- In an earlier year, this CSD contained Hespeler, 1891 (37.2% share).
