    3. Thanks to all who answered my query on 'Census Residence'. I was sure I put 'reference'!!!! 72 this year. that tells a story. Looking it up, the answer was indeed the parish of Halford, where I found to my delight a relative in 'Residence'. Not in Reference!

BUT... A lot depends on the date the reference was written, as the 1841 referencing has been altered "comparatively" recently. Although the Piece Numbers remain the same, at the time I was working my way through the 1841 Census in the late 1990s, each piece was *not* Folioed as one unit. It was broken into sections - some of which were, and others weren't, given folio numbers. The result was that it was possible to have several quite different folios given the same one :-( This was converted "comparatively" recently into sequentially-numbered 'sections', and all were numbered-through separately from 1. All of this was easily determined until about a month ago, when Ancestry "improved" its search-boxes by removing piece and folio numbers and substituting "places" - of which around 90% have no relevance whatsoever to anything appearing in any English Census.....
