I am interested in searching the census records by parish, so I can see who was living in an entire parish on a census night, is this possible to do on Ancestry?
Also if I wanted to find institutions, how would I go about searching these?
Thanks

Put the name of the parish in the appropriate box on the search page............


But............in all honesty, you are better off trying for yourself.....trial and error is the best way to learn.........

Play around with searches......see what comes up
