There may be more people living in detached parts of the parish (if there were any) and, if so, the number may or may not be included in the figures above. It is quite difficult to be sure from the population tables.

1801, 1811, 1821 and 1831 Censuses
The population tables only show figures for Flitcham - there is no mention of Appleton. However in the tables for the 1841 and 1851 censuses, where these figures are repeated, they are for Flitcham-cum-Appleton.
1861 Census
"The increase of population in Flitcham-cum-Appleton is partly attributed to the erection of cottages for agricultural labourers."
1901 Census
"Including Flitcham Abbey."
