Hi all, how would I find who lived on Legge Street Birmingham during the 1840s? Is there a way of shortcutting to this address on the 1841 census on Ancestry?

Hi Sandra This may help 1841 http://yourarchives.nationalarchives.gov.uk/index.php?title=Category:1841_census_registration_districts 1851 http://yourarchives.nationalarchives.gov.uk/index.php?title=Category:1851_census_registration_districts From http://yourarchives.nationalarchives.gov.uk/index.php?title=Home_page Do remember that many places in 1841 were enumerated at best with Street or Road names but more often than not no numbers were recorded You could also try period directories http://www.historicaldirectories.org/hd/ Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) > Hi all, > how would I find who lived on Legge Street Birmingham during the 1840s? > Is there a way of shortcutting to this address on the 1841 census on > Ancestry? > Regards > Sandra

Sandra Take a look at http://www.hunimex.com/warwick/freecens/1841/1149_html.zip All the houses are shown as (what could be a default value of) no 1 which tallies with Nivard's comment about individual house numbers not being recorded. -- David
