Victor, Ann is talking about searching the 1861 census on 1837online. Could be useful sometimes even for those of us who usually use Ancestry, as sometimes two names are better than one lol Mind you, They are brave to say it's a unique feature as you can search for two names on the 1881 census on Family Search too!

Useful Tip from 1837 site: Did you know that you can search for two persons living in the same household? There is a unique feature within the advanced person search that allows you to match the person you are looking for with another person who lived in the same household. This is particularly useful when you are searching for ancestors with more common names as it allows you to filter your search even more if you knew who they lived with. Ann x
