1911 census

[Merry Monty Montgomery]

I'm sure I saw a thread on here saying some more counties would be released this month, but I can't find the thread now. Does anyone know which counties? I'm waiting, not very patiently, for Durham and Northumberland :(

It was me who posted it Merry:

The say that all of the remaining English counties will be up.

Dave Annal told me when I saw him last Fri that he thought they were going to launch Glamorgan at WDYTYA show, but they didn't!

Patience!

I too have been patiently waiting for Northumberland 1911 census, or not so patiently as I've been checking every day.. seems all of England is practically now on bar the one I need!!

Is it possible to view a particular address, as to who was living there for free, or have you got to pay a fee for a look?

If you have the address key it into the Residential place.

However, its not an exact science because it depends what the census filler put i.e.

Street might be Street or St
Road might be Road or Rd

Also you'll need the parish/ward rather than the registration district i.e I searched for (x) (St) Hackney from a cert I had but it wasn't Hackney it was Haggerston that it was under, I was okay because I know the area well. So you'll have to have a few gos at it.

Also one of the names need to be filled in I would go through the Alphabet atarting with A* though to Z* in the surname and copy out any people at the address if you want to know every name. This is where it gets tricky because Mr Smith might have put St and Mr Brown might have put Street so you have to use a lot of permutations to get the information you need.



If anyone else knows a more simple way please let me and LorrainJ know

I thought that if you are searching by address then there is no possibility of adding a name.

[Little Nell]

I think you are all liars, I don't believe you've been waiting patiently at all!!!

[maggie_4_7]

I thought that if you are searching by address then there is no possibility of adding a name.

If you just residential search in requires one name filled in and 1 letter more than a wildcard.

Unless someone has managed to make it work without either name field.

You can do it by street only etc etc but I thought LorrainJ wanted a particular address.

Edit to say

Yeah you can search under the place option

Location
*Street

Registration sub district

Residential place

But it only gives you number of house and street you have to view transcript to see who is actually living there.

[Elaine ..Spain]

So are you saying you can put a street name in the residential place?
Doesn´t seem to work for me!

[Elaine ..Spain]

Doesn´t seem to work for me!

Well a couple have worked but some others haven´t!

[maggie_4_7]

Well a couple have worked but some others haven´t!

That might be because of the discrepancy between St and Street and Road and Rd also some people may have put Str although I have tried it both ways now and it seems to be able to distinguish that St is Street and vice versa it didn't before.

But yes you can put a street name in residential place plus the house or without a house number and the sub district or district.

i.e.

*Last name
W*

Residential place
Essex St, Haggerston


Brings up everyone with a name beginning with W in Essex St in Haggerston, Hackney

But if you put the house number it brings up everyone at that address with a surname beginning with W.

Like I said it takes a while if you've no idea who you're looking for or what surname so you have to either use a first name i.e. John if you know it and no surname or search starting with A* - Z* in the first name and the same with the surname.

Looks as if you have to pay to see who lived at the address.

No you don't.

PM me the address please and I'll have a go let me know exactly what it is you're trying to find out.
