Many thanks mgnv Tip worked perfectly first time on findmypast. It is always useful to see the original census. I was then able to see the Marital status for Jessie was widowed as I had suspected

Great stuff

I think that's the one thank you!!!. the Albert I am looking for had a mother called Jessie but that is easy to transcribe incorrectly.
Yes I was searching on Genes
How did you do that?

If you do need to look at the next page, GR will provide you with a link, if you email them with the details.

Does anyone know how to view the second page if a household continues beyond the bottom of the page? It has happened to me several times but the current one I am stuggling with is Albert Fitzgerald 54 Chiswell St born 1873 in the 1881 census
