The 1871 census of Great Britain was recorded for the night of 2nd April. The census for Kirby Muxloe, a civil parish in Leicestershire, was mostly contained in Public Record Office reference RG10/3234 Enumeration District 13.

Therefore, if you are using any of this information for critical purposes, it is recommended that you check it against images of the original Enumerator's book.
