Find My Past censuses are searchable by address

Many thanks Jonesey and Pam, can I ask if I can just buy credits rather then subscribe to FMP?. regards Chrys.

Thanks for all your help, unfortunatly although i could get the streets i wanted it wasnt showing the house numbers i was looking for. a bit confused now!. Chrys

Which censuses are you wanting this info from and what addresses have you got? Are you looking for a particular person or just who was living at that address in the census?

Hi Londonbelle, I have not been able to find a Albert Harvey Veryard and his wife Sarah on 1871 census, 1861 census gives thier address as 32 Brook street, Marylebone, and 1881 as 22 Sydney street,Chelsea. I know what happened to them after this, but I dont know if there were any children. I have sent off for a couple of certs but wrong parents, I just thought as i cant find them by name i would try address, but have had no luck, regards chrys.

Could this be their marriage?

Hi everyone, yes right marriage, and the address where Albert died is correct, its only that with there being 20 years between censuses i wanted to check out if there were any children. Sarah remarried in 1883 to a Lewis Potten Sawyers Amey, (try saying that after a couple of drinks). She was 25 years older then he was and I know that there were no children from that marriage. I have searched Free BMD and gone through birth records on Genes there are a couple of birth with deaths very soon after perhaps this could be what happened. If I dont get anywhere with censuses I think i will send for one of them. Dont like not knowing i gets really frustrated. oh well just have to keep trying, thanks to everyone, Chrys. OH just seen census 1871 that you posted no kids then!.

Hi again, Im sorry but I should have asked Rose how did you find them under the name Demont ? its nothing like Veryard, right couple though. I ask cos I have several people who just vanish for one census and then turn up again. Chrys.

Chrys,

I found them by searching for the address.

Searching for Albert born Herefordshire c1836 would have worked too.

Rose

Thank you Rose will try this for other rellies, Chrys.
