Even my 'standby' method of street searches isn't working. (Search the street name on Google, find a webpage with someone living on that street for the relevant census then search for that person).
I have in 1911, 16 Albury Street, Deptford:-
William Foster Ford 35
Elizabeth Ford 34
Elizabeth Ford 13
James Ford 11
another 4 children under 10.
I can't find them in 1901.
They married June 5th 1897 in Rotherhithe, and were living at 8 Debnams Road; they aren't there in 1901.
Daughter Elizabeth (b 11 July 1898) was baptised 3rd July 1901 Shadwell, St Paul. They were living at 51 Baker Street, Deptford.
I have searched the 1901 on FMP for Baker Street to see if they are there, but I can't find a Baker Street in the right area. According to an index of Victorian London street names (http://homepage.ntlworld.com/hitch/g.../lonstr_b.html) there is a Baker Street in St Saviour, Southwark, but not Deptford.
Even Googling for Baker Street, Deptford brings nothing up.
I might have found William in hospital in Greenwich, but I am by no means certain it is him, and can't confirm it unless I find his family elsewhere.
Any ideas?
