Find Ancestors

Is there anyone who could do this look-up for me please? Particularly need to know if head of house (James) is alive at this point. Probably in Bowling, Bradford (in 1871 were at 134 Woody(?) St, Bowling, St Lukes District of Bradford. James Mahoney, head, 46(?), commercial traveller, born Cork, Ireland Jane, wife, 60, born Ireland (paralysed?) Ada, dau, unmar, 27, weaver, born Ireland Margaret, dau, unmar, 18, cotton weaver, born Bradford, Yorks Many thanks Barbara

There is no Woody street on the 1861 Bradford Street Index.Without an exact address it is an impossible task,there is no name index, just streets, sorry

If he's alive in 1871, then surely he's alive in 1861?

Hello Linda Thank you for replying to my request. Sorry about this confusion - having enlarged the address as much as I can on 1871 census page, it looks like Moody St, township of Bowling, municipal borough of Bradford, ecclesiastic district of St Lukes. The enumerator's writing is very curly and difficult to decipher. If it's too big an ask, I do understand. Thanks very much anyway. Tracy - I obviously confused the issue mentioning James! James wasn't alive on the 1871 census: I got the info about him partly from his daughter Margaret's marriage certificate (1887) and partly from an IGI reference I think is for James' marriage to Jane, who is shown as a widow on 1871. Thanks to you both for replying so quickly. Barbara

There is a Moody St, so i am just going to find it, keep your fingers crossed

I am sorry,but they are not in Moody Street. There are 249 seperate pages for Bowling, so I can't look through them all. Linda

Hi Linda Many thanks for looking anyway. Bowling must have been a huge place. I really appreciate your time and patience with my confused request. Barbara
