There are two indexes in this volume, a General Index and a Leicester Index. The first consists of all entries other
than those in the Leicester Index, the second consists of entries which would otherwise begin with the word 'Leicester'.
Cross-references to entries in the Leicester Index from entries in both the General Index and the Leicester Index are
prefixed with the letter 'L.' Places named in the text merely as residences are indexed only as a means of cross-reference
to the residents. Lists of subject-entries are given in the Leicester Index at the end of the entries for 'city and borough'
and 'trade and industry'.
