Member Since: April 2006 Posts: 0 Send Message	ok I'm looking at RG 12/150 Folio 24 Page 42. Census 1881 At the house hold of Thomas Scully. If you look at original image he's at the very top. The house #'s seem to go in sequence up the page so you'd think that he'd be at # 100 but if you look at the previous page #100 is there instead. Trying to figure if this is one big household, or if there's just no address for my rellies. Helen

	They were definitely at 100 Andover Road. There were evidently several families sharing the house - you can tell this by the dashes between columns 4 and 5. A double dash (\\) indicates the start of a new house, whereas a single dash (\) separates different families within the same dwelling. Cheers, Richard
