Is it possible to search the 1911 (or any other) census return based on an address rather than a name search?

All tips very helpful, if your on Ancestry or FMP. But I'm on Genes Reunited (which is what I thought the Tips Board would relate to). I've just been given Platinum subscription for Christmas. Should I have gone elsewhere?

You can't do an address search on GR. It's available on FMP & Ancestry. Why not post up the address you need searching and someone with a sub for one of those sites should be able to check it out for you.

Mac
Thanks for the offer. I'm looking for the 1901 Census entry for Elizabeth Ann Pritchard (Nee Peverley) who got married to Richard Bailes Pritchard on 17/10/1900 in Sunderland. At the time of the marriage their address was 46 Coronation Street, Sunderland. She was born Sunderland in 1877. I'm more likely to find her on the Census as her husband was a seaman and probably wasn't at home.

Thanks, Choccy for the 1891 & 1901 info. Unfortunately, that just muddy s the water. If I read the information right, it appears that her mother wasn't married to Edward SPURRS (SPOORS) at time of birth.
Looks like more digging to do but your research has been very helpful.
