I enjoyed the challenge! Besides, it was another bit of displacement activity - rather than doing the jobs that really need to be done! Christine

Hi Christine Only been looking of family since oct 2004 and still learning did not think to look that way as i pay to ancestry thanks very much for your time and help Val

Working from that info to go at it the normal way round... Source information: RG13/3774 Registration district: Prestwich Sub-registration district: Failsworth ED, institution, or vessel: 23 Folio: 152 Page: 25 Household schedule number: 150 Name: Samuel Wainwright Age: 58 Estimated birth year: abt 1843 Relation: Head Gender: Male Where born: Dodleston, Cheshire, England Emma Wainwright abt 1849 Manchester, Lancashire, England Wife North Manchester Lancashire Samuel Wainwright abt 1843 Dodleston, Cheshire, England Head North Manchester Lancashire Samuel Wainwright abt 1875 Manchester, Lancashire, England Son North Manchester Lancashire

I had a look on Ancestry. It doesn't have an index, so you have to work out where Moston is (North Machester / Failsworth) and work through the Enumeration District descriptions. It's in No 23, and work through the pages to find the address - page 25. My interpretation of the script (for 18 John Harrop St) is: Samuel WAINWRIGHT - Head - married - 58 - platelayer's labourer - b Dodleston, Cheshire Emma WAINWRIGHT - Wife - married - 52 - b Lancashire M/chester Samuel WAINWRIGHT - Son - 26 - labourer (general) - b Lancashire M/chester I looked on the next page to see if there wer eany more (no) but I found the enumerator's note that the occupants of no 20 'Took paper with them' !

Hi Sarah will do thanks loads for you help and time Val

So you need to put up a thread asking if anyone can do an address search on the National Archives 1901 census? And quote the full address with the number. Number 18 is on the index, so someone should be able to get it for you. Good Luck Sarah

Hi Thanks Sarah the no is 18 thank you for your time Val

Do you mean, ''Who lived at John Harrop Street, Moston, Manchester on the 1901 census?'' I have found the street on the National Archives version of the 1901 census. If you are like me and don't have a subscription going for it at the moment, then you would need to ask if anyone else has!! The cost is 75p per page on that site, but it's the only one with an address search for 1901. Do you know what number you need in the street? There seem to be 19 families living there, which will stretch across several pages of census. Sarah
