Hi,

Although I'm not brand new to this there are still things that I have not yet learnt about.

For instance, I know that this row indicates that the person lived at some kind of workhouse, large school or a emuneration district.

However I am not sure how I can search on the number provided on that particular row of the record.

Can anyone help me?

Thanks

Nikki

You can't search by putting in names but you can browse the pages for the ED (Enumeration District)

Click on Home; click on the census you want and scroll down. There is a list of counties. Click on the county and then the parish and then the District. This will bring up all the pages for that district and you can search through them by using the next arrow at the top of the screen.
