Hi Xavier,

I have the same situation with GR and the census returns but mine were on GR in 2009 and then when GR changed the source of their records my ancestors disappeared. When I was originally searching for them I could only find the family in the 1861 census on GR and Ancestry.

I have tried numerous times to get GR to solve this issue but I can't supply them with the address they were living at because no street address is on the census image. I have supplied them with the page number etc but GR can't find them unless they have the street address.

Hiya all,

Wonder if someone can help?

I am trying to follow John BRADFORD born 27th November 1856 in Cambridge, St Andrew The Less Parish, using the census records.

I have him at home with his parents and family in Cambridge in 1861, but cannot find him in the GR 1871 census records.

However he appears to be shown on the Ancestry 1871 census records, but unfotunately I do not have access.

Can anyone tell me why he might appear on one set of records but not on the other? And would someone be kind enough to let me know the details of the Ancestry entry?

Thanks in advance........
