Have just tried this - brilliant! Have never been able to trace my ancestor Thomas Sainsbury in 1841. Using this method I have found him listed as Thomas Saingbury !

Hi, I think that was me - its something I found out years ago, by accident. If you have a small village or town, just bring up a year of census and then enter nothing except the village name - the whole village comes up in alphabetical order - its fun seeing the same old names who interbred with your lot. Fascinating stuff.

Thanks Geri for your reply, but it was an answer to someone else not to me, and I just read it and tried the tip. I should have nudged it!!!

I saw a tip you had put on someone's thread about putting in just the place names on a census search and you would get all the names of people there, and in alphabetical order. I did it right away and it worked. Now I can't get it to work and I can't find the thread! Could you please tell me again how it is done? Ta ever so.
