1881 cd rom would enjoy doing searches for anyone as i have the 1881 cd rom, have run out of my names to check and its gathering dust, sue I would not worry about them gathering dust. I have had the LDS 1881 CD-ROM's for perhaps four years. I now have many other censuses on CD-ROM but I still go back to the 1881 CD-ROM's regularly. Martin

Hi Sue, John Wiseman was living at Mill Cottage, Bishopwearmouth, Sunderland in 1891. By 1901 he had moved to Crescent Row - also Sunderland. So it looks like he never moved from the area. Were there any in the Sunderland area?? Thanks again Kay

Hi there, I've been having problems locating my great grandfather Edward Robert Terry born 1879 in Poplar East London. I've found his parents (Edward and Sarah Terry) using the 1881 search facility on Familysearch but no sign of Edward jnr. They were living at 55 Tetley Street, Poplar - details are: Ref No: RG11 Piece/Folio: 0501/142 Page No: 15 I'd be interested to know if there is any more info on there please (especially anything else relating to Sarah's place of birth). Many thanks Helen

Hi Susan, My Jones family are proving to be very elusive!! Thanks very much for looking anyway, I appreciate your time. Suzanne.

many thanks for looking anyway. He must of been missed off, as he's large as life in 1891 and 1901 and died 1938. I couldn't find him either! Keren

I am trying to find A William Watkins Pile, but have no idea where he was born. He married in Middlesex in 1895 at the age of 35, but births around that time only list a williwm in W.Ashford, Kent, or devizes, Wiltshire. Would appreciate any William piles you can find, he would have been 21 in 1881. Many thanks George lovely

Hi Sue, Could you try and find my 2xG Grandafther for me as I can't find him anywhere on the LDS site. His name is John Wiseman and he was born in Sunderland around 1858. I have him in 1891 aged 32 as a shipyard worker and in 1901 aged 43 as a glassworks labourer. Any info would be greatfully received Kay

Hi Sue, re my earlier query and your reply : Crewe & Monks Coppenhall are in Cheshire Tredegar & George Town are in Monmouthshire Marian

Yes Please..... I cannot find my great great grandfather James Olding on the LDS site. He was born in West Tytherley, which falls under the Hants/Wilts border. He was born in 1863, would be about 18. He's not with his parents AAron and Eliza. Have tried numerous ways of locating him till my eyes start rolling! Have tried different spellings of the surname and just James only, Just can't seem to find him or his future Wife and her family either. Would so much like to discover him and see where he was in 1881. Many Thanks Keren

Hi Susan, could you look up a Sidney William Jones for me please, I can't find him at all on the 1881 online. He would be 1 year old (born Jan 1880), born in Hereford, and would expect him to be living with parents William & Caroline Jones. He also had a brother Ernest, but not sure when he was born, so may not be there. Thanks for your help, it's very kind of you. Suzanne.

Thank you very much for looking, Sue. Jan

hi jan, looked for john forster, found one living at 32 chapel st london. his occupation is beer house keeper,but what was interesting was he had a visitor called william golver who was a baker, was john still a baker in 1881 or could he have changed professions ? this was the only one i could find of right age, sue

Thanks for looking Susan, but that isn't my William G. He was 52 on the 1881, born Bexley Heath, living at 7 Sydney Terrace, Plumstead. Definitely shown as Married, but I can't find a definite record of Sarah Maria's death, so I can't be sure. He was Widower on the 1891 though. I'm also trying to find a John Foster/Forster who was 15 on the 1871, born Bexley Heath, and a baker. He definitely is not the John aged 30 living at 7 Sydney Terrace as above. In the 1881 my gt uncle Frederick is Carpenter, in the 1891 Baker, and by 1901 Master Baker. I'm trying to find the connection between my family and the baker John Forster to see if that was why Frederick changed careers. Many thanks for your help. Jan.
