''Note: National, provincial and district boundaries have changed considerably since 1908. Typically, old states, ‘divisions’ and districts have been broken into smaller units, and many tahsils upgraded to districts. Some units have since been renamed. Therefore, this article is being posted mainly for its historical value.

=Insein Town=
Head-quarters of the subdivision and township
of the same name in Hanthawaddy District, Lower Burma, situated
in 16° 53' N. and 96° 8' E., 10 miles north-west of Rangoon. Popu-
lation (1901), 5,350. Insein is an important railway centre, containing
the principal workshops of the Burma Railways Company.

It has the
largest jail in the Province, an engineering school, and a reformatory
school. There is a frequent local train service to and from Rangoon,
and, as a good deal of high land is suitable for building sites, Insein
is becoming a popular residential suburb of The capital. The town was
constituted a 'notified area' in 1903, and is administered by a com-
mittee of five members. The income of the town fund in 1904-5
amounted to Rs. 13,600, and the expenditure to Rs. 7,200.
