    1. [YORKSGEN] 1861 census pages missing
    2. Richard Tetley
    3. Hi, I've been trying to find a relative (William Tetley) who may well have been in the workhouse at Holbeck in 1861. Checking through the 1861 census, I've found a page for Holbeck Union Workhouse that starts 'Holbeck Workhouse contd'. Unfortunately the previous page on both Ancestry and FMP, is not there. I assume that it has missed being microfilmed. In fact it looks as though pages 13 and 14 of RG09 piece 3363 folio 76 are missing entirely from the 1861 census. So, if you have relatives who lived in Holbeck Union Workhouse or in the very adjacent streets, then you may struggle to find them. Can anyone suggest a way of locating the missing pages? If neither Ancestry or FMP have them, then who has the master copy these days? Or is the master copy missing two pages? regards Richard
