Is there anybody who has a subscription to Findmypast who would be able to let me know the 1841 census sheet reference number for the following person:

BERTIE, James 25, M, St James Clerkenwell (Middlesex)

I have tried all sorts of search variations on Ancestry but can't seem to locate him. Some of the sheets on Ancestry are very faint so I am guessing this is where the problem lies.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Could he possibly be this one? He's a tailor.

Hi Margaret,

Thank you for looking this one up for me, I'm not sure it is the correct one as my ancestor wasn't a tailor. Somebody has since PM'd me what looks like the right person.

Thank you again

1841 Census HO107/0659/9 lists James Bertie, aged 25, Pearl Maker. He was born outside of the county. Hope this helps.
