I was trying to find a family in the 1871 census, but no trace of them. John Griffin - born around 1836 in Hallow. Wife Georgina (Greening) born in 1833 in Bredon. Children Eliza (1859), Henry (around 1862), William (1863), Alice (1867), Clara (1868), all born Worcester. I think they are living somewhere on The Shambles in Worcester in 1871; that's where they are in 1881-1901 (some of them at least). (though I think I've found Eliza living with an Aunt in 1871). If I could search the 1871 census by street at ancestry.co.uk I could probably find them, but I don't know how. Anyone have any suggestions? Anyone know the Piece/Folio/Page #'s this street was on in 1871? Is there a way to find this out? Nick

Hi Nicholas, you could try the name search facility for 1871 census,online with the national archives.
