I have found children on the 1891 census, but the parents are on the previous page. How do I look at the previous page?
Alternatively does anyone know a way of searching by address rather than name?

Unfortunately, it seems in this site one can only look at one page of a census; give me the names and I'lll have a look.

You are probably not using Ancestry Margaret. Give us the names and I and others will take a look for you.

One of the big drawbacks on GR -

With Ancestry, you can scroll through the images to your heart's content

Thanks for the PM, Margaret:

The surname is Snooks, the children are Walter J, Albert, Ernest, Harry and Minnie, living in Handsworth in the 1891 Census.


I have to leave the site soon, sorry, so shall pass this to others. Happy hunting.

Shirley, you can still view the enumerator's description. You need to be on the image screen. Then just click District link as before. It is now a pop-up and if your pop-ups are blocked I guess it won't come up.

The Snooks are between 147 & 149 Booth St & then between 8C 2H & 8C 6H. I'm assuming they are apartments in a building or houses in a court.
