Hi everyone

I'm looking for the residents of 1 Church Street, Bradford in the 1851 census. On a death certificate my relative Rachel Lord died there in 1850 and the person who was at the death was Sq. Farrar or something similar to that. Can anyone find this person in the census? I have no idea who this person is in relation to the family so would be interesting to know.

Thanks very much
Belinda

I've just found out that the Ellen Farrar was Rachel's sister. I found a marriage on the IGI for a Squire Farrar and and Ellen Coggin which confirms this!

Thanks everyone for your help!!
