  • 1851 Census, Too Faded

    Can someone please help decipher the writing on the original 1851 Census of
    Sarah Ward
    Age: 14
    Source Citation: Class: HO107; Piece: 1527; Folio: 199; Page: 33; GSU roll: 174757.

    I cannot read the whole Census it's so faded, I don't know if anyone else can do any better. Many thanks for taking a look.

    Updated: I have found some places and date of births but cannot see Street address or occupations

      Hi,
      It looks like 181 Fleet St.

      artist and ????seller

      Not sure really.

      Oh I assume you mean the 1851 census, not 1951, or if you have access to the 1951 census then can I be your friend- he he ???!!!

          Yes, it definitely says Fleet Street. If you can't read the street address then you can look at the "description of enumeration district" as that usually lists all the streets.

            On the 1861 census, Elizabeth sr's birthplace is Vauxhall, Surrey. Now back to 1851 to see if it could say Vauxhall.... I know there was an l near the end! Um... still can't tell.

              Thank you Kite runner, I didn't realise I could look at the description of enumeration district to find all streets, thats very helpful.

                    Hello,
                    I'm new to family tree forum. I noticed this post on Sarah Ward. She is daughter of William Ward my great great grandfather. Are you looking into this family of Wards too? Chris.
