Reg...

I'm sorry... you've completely lost me!

I have ancestry, so have searched for Rodwells in Middlesex, but there are too many of them, and I thought you could search by occupation on FMP.

What's the PRO site, please?

I've found the Rodwell Bros bakery mentionned in some archives and also Kelly's ... looking to find them on a census so I can ascertain how my Rodwell bakers are linked, as I am sure they must be,

thanks for any pointers.

actually the 1881/1891 would still be useful on findmypast, if that is availabe to anyone.

1901 is not on findmypast........you need the PRO site.......or Ancestry

Have you tried accessing the PRO site using the decoder?

If anyone has a findmypast sub, please could they search for surname "Rodwell" who is a baker in the 1901 census, in London or Middlesex, I think they may be quite a few of them, I don't need them all listed, just the names/YOB so I can view them on Ancestry..

I am particularly looking for Rodwell Bros Bakery in Cricklewood, but I don't know how this would have been defined in 1901 as I can't fine any Rodwells who are bakers in Cricklewood!

Many thanks
