Hi. I was wondering if someone is able to find out who was living at 8 Cromwell St, Birmingham in and around 1878. I am researching a connection to John Dyer as i now have a document stating John Dyer, Royal Marine will leave the Marines and he intends to live at this address in 1878. I'm hoping to connect him with my known ancestors.
Many thanks

Briefly -
in 1881, no 8 Cromwell Street, Aston, isn't listed. It jumps from 7 to 10.

Researching:
Old genealogists never die.....they just lose their census.

The advice is to keep to one post for the same famlly or person

Folks who help on here are genes members who have subs to other sites and are happy to do searches .
Double positing means we spend our time looking and posting info that may have have already been posted

It isn't genes who look at requests but other members who kindly do look ups to try and help
