Margaret I Found Church Street Poplar, but unfortunatly it only went up to number 10 in 1851. I did look around the next couple of Streets, but there were no Holdgates there, sorry. If you have any more addresses you want looked up in 1851, please let me know. Lynda

Lynda, I don't know if you can help with this request but it is worth a try- My husband's gt.grandfather was William Thomas HOLDGATE born ca 1825(acc to censuses- Middlesex London - no other details). However, although living in Hull Yks, his 2nd child a Charles Henry HOLDGATE was born 1858 at 21 Church St. Isle of Dogs. Poplar. I have wondered if perhaps other HOLDGATE family members were living at that address, or immediate vicinity in 1851?? William's marriage cert noted his father as Joseph HOLDGATE, occ Painter. That is all I know. I certainly understand that not being surname indexed makes it impossible to search the census without an address, and will understand if you have too many other requests to take a look at the address above. I appreciate any help you are able to give. Thank you, Best wishes, Margaret Taylor (Toronto)

Can do 1851 London look ups. but MUST have AREA & ADDRESS, it's not name searched. As it is original copy of enumerators book it would also help to have the name you are looking for, as the writing is hard to read, but if I have an idea of who you want it makes it easier, and if you have the number of the address, that would also be a big help, as often there are a few entries on different page number, or even different cd's.
