one of my acestors was an Innkeeper in 1861 census but I can't find him in 1851 is there a way to find out who was at the same address without putting in a name ??

As he was an innkeeper it might be worth looking at the Historical directory site to see if it lists other innkeepers or try googling the name of the pub.

Address searches on Ancestry are only really feasible for 1881.........in other years, it can be done, but it is a rather long-winded process. Reg
