Wondering if anyone has the 1851/61 census for York, I am looking for a Christopher Crump and his daughter Elizabeth, she was born about 1843 and according to the 81/91/01 census she was born in York, she married in St George's Church York in 1868. Many thanks in advance Lynn Keane

Hi Lynne, I think this your man, Christopher CRUMP born Ireland aged 50 PRO no HO107/2355/395 with a Maria Crump aged 18 born Ireland at same PRO no. This census area covers Walmgate which at the time was quickly becoming the area where Irish immigrants settled in York. It maybe of interest to you to try and find a copy of Poverty and Prejudice by Frances Finnegan which studies the Irish immigrants in York from 1840 to 1875. On pages 162 / 3 the CRUMP family are mentioned! If you cannot find this book I will send a photocopy of the pages if you send me your postal address off the list.
