I believe Kentish Town is a sub district of St Pancras.

Hi, Can anyone tell me if 'Kentish Town' London is the same as Pancras, London. With the exception of 1901 census, Birthplace of Arthur Lewsley b.1855 listed as Pancras. In 1901 census there is a listing for A. Lewsley but b. in Kentish Town, London. Was there a renaming of boundaries? Lynne
