Distribution by Region (All Variants)

For a listing of the counties contained in each region see "Geographic Regions" on the main 1851 census page. As with all of the other surname variants, the South East region was home to a great many Molletts, but for reasons stated elsewhere, this region should not be considered to be an ancestral base for the name.

Surname Distribution by County

The following table shows the most common surname variations in the counties where they were found in the largest numbers. The total at the right hand side, however, represents the total number of all surname variations found in the corresponding county - not just the most common ones (some are not shown for want of space).
