You could try looking for it in local street directories (Post office, Kelly's,Pigotsetc). Some of them are online at www.historicaldirectories.org If its not covered by them the local archives should hold some of these directories. |

Thanks for the info Kath, I will check it out. Jess, No, it's not a famous house but we think the house may have been a pub in the late 1800's. Katherine |

Is it a famous house, or just a house in a street - ordinary houses you can, but it is time consuming |

You can do an address search on the 1881 census on Ancestry or www.familysearch.org Kath. x |
