Lost cousins.com how do you fill in the details on My Ancestry? Where do you find Piece, folio and page number? Do you need access to 1881 Census? I can't find the person I want on Familysearch. Can anybody help on this? I'm looking for Abel Armitage Carter b.1855 and m. Elizabeth Anne Bentley in 1879. Thank you, Lesley T.

The only Abel Carter I can find on the 1881 census was born in Ireland and living in St Peter Port Guernsey. Maybe the Abel you are looking for emigrated. Clive Evans

I really like Lost Cousins, it will get better and better as people all add their relatives. I think I have about 160 on now. The more people who do this, the more likely it will start matching up.

160 !! That must have taken you weeks !! It takes ages just to add one person !

Julie

Julie Report 13 Jan 2005 08:54

Well, yes it can, but once you have added one person, you can use the 'add similar' button for people on the same page and with the same refernce details. Then all you have to do is enter a Christian name and an age, the rest is already there for you. Since there were usually loads and loads of people on one page, you can get a lot done this way.

Thanks to all who have replied. I can't find abel Carter on 1881 Census but know where he was in Yorks from 1901 census. He could have been registered as Abel Armitage Can anybody look that up for me?He was living either Huddersfield, Cleckheaton, Liversedge, Leeds, Morley or Batley. Married to Elizabeth Anne. Lesley
