Hi Dorothy If you go to the website www.familysearch.org Then from the main page , select in turn : Library / Family History Library Catalogue / Place Search This will give you a box or two to fill in. Trying Plymouth and selecting England Devon Plymouth , gives me a list of information Selecting "Census" gives another list - selecting whichever is appropriate at clicking "View Film Notes" gives the various film nos. Example below ! Regards Dave PS - Just might be worth a look on www.genuki.org.uk under Devon - some census returns have been transcribed on various web sites. This will be easier ( probably ! ) for getting the basic ref nos of the census fiches ( The RG Nos ) Note Location Film 1841 Charles-the-Martyr (part) HO 107/240-241 FHL BRITISH Film 241319 1841 St. Andrew FHL BRITISH Film 241332 1841 Charles-the-Martyr (part) HO 107/271 FHL BRITISH Film 241333 1851 Charles-the-Martyr (part) HO 107/286 p. 711-724 FHL BRITISH Film 221025 1851 Charles-the-Martyr (part) HO 107/287 p. 1-562 FHL BRITISH Film 221026 1851 St. Andrew (part) HO 107/287 p. 1-444 FHL BRITISH Film 221027 1851 St. Andrew (part) HO 107/287 p. 445-937 FHL BRITISH Film 221028 1861 Charles-the-Martyr (part) RG 9/1424-1431 FHL BRITISH Film 542811 1861 Charles-the-Martyr (part) RG 9/1432-1438 FHL BRITISH Film 542812 1861 St. Andrew (part) RG 9/1439-1444 FHL BRITISH Film 542813 1861 St. Andrew (part) RG 9/1445-1449 FHL BRITISH Film 542814 1871 Charles-the-Martyr (part) RG 10/2107-2109 FHL BRITISH Film 831791 1871 Charles-the-Martyr (part) RG 10/2112-2114 FHL BRITISH Film 831793 1871 Charles-the-Martyr (part) RG 10/2115-2116 FHL BRITISH Film 831794 1871 St. Andrew (part) RG 10/2117-2118 FHL BRITISH Film 831795 1871 St. Andrew (part) RG 10/2119-2120 FHL BRITISH Film 831796 1871 St. Andrew (part) RG 10/2121 FHL BRITISH Film 831797 1871 St. Andrew (part) RG 10/2122-2123 FHL BRITISH Film 832027 1871 Ships docked at Plymouth RG 10/2124 FHL BRITISH Film 832028 1881 Charles-the-Martyr (part) RG 11/2185-2188 FHL BRITISH Film 1341526 ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dorothy Elliott" <delliott5@cfl.rr.com> To: <NORTHERN-ENGLAND-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, February 13, 2001 4:52 PM Subject: [NTH-ENG] Ordering films > Good morning, > I need to make a visit to the local LDS centre. > I believe you have to order the film etc you want to see. > i know there are numbers, but how do you figure out what they are? > Have looked on their web site and think I must be having one of my "mentally missing" days.<g> > I need the 1861 census for Devon---Plymouth first. > 1861 for Liverpool ---Everton and Kirkdale > The 1871 for Liverpool---Everton and Kirkdale > The 1891 for Liverpool.
