  • 1911 look up please

    Would some kind person with access to 1911 detail please look up Class: RG78; Piece: 866 for Edmonds families. I can see 3 or 4 in the summary books on ancestry. However the trick to find the details on Ancestry (see below) does not work on this occasion so it needs someone with FindMyPast.

    If you can see them in the summary books then you should be able to find the corresponding images on Ancestry by using the drop down links on the right hand side of this page:


    • select the corresponding County / Civil Parish / Registration District / Enumeration District from the summary book information
    • when you get to the images take the household number from the summary book info and double it - and go to that image. You may need to scroll back or forwards one or two pages, but you should end up in approximately the correct place.

        Yes, very useful while everyone is waiting for Ancestry to index the English info.

          This sounds like a fantastic tip - but I cannot get it to work. The summary book shows:


          1911 England Census Summary Books
          about Mrs Edmonds

          Name: Mrs Edmonds
          Number of Males:1
          Number of Females:2
          Household schedule number:172
          Street Address:Holloway Lawrel Cottage
          Civil parish:Lopen
          Ecclesiastical parish:Lopen
          County/Island:Somerset
          Country:England
          Registration district:Chard
          Registration District Number:11
          Sub-registration district:Crewkerne
          Sub-Registration District Number:11
          ED, institution, or vessel:6
          Piece:866

          But when I go to the link you gave and choose Somerset then Chard I just get ED 1-9 and if I choose Crewkerne I just get EDs 1-3

          what am I doing wrong?

            I don't think you are doing anything wrong. It looks like a fault with the Ancestry images!

                Not necessarily. I had an elusive one in Lancashire and had to get creative with a map to pick a likely parish to get to an enumeration district with the right number.

                  Yes, I know what you mean UJ - but I did try a few alternatives with this and couldn't come up with the right one! :(

                    This is the closest I could get

                    Registration District:Chard

                    Address:*Holloway Lopen Ilminster
                    County:Somersetshire

                    As you can see Registration District and Sub District numbers differ as does the address. Nothing came up when I searched using the ancestry summary book info
