Hi Sylvie Thanks for trying. 66 Southdean Gardens definitely exists, but I had trouble tracing it on 1901 census. Have no more suggestions, thanks for looking. Just had a thought - it may be Wimbledon - but I think that comes under Surrey. Sue

Hi Sylvie, Thanks very much for trying. I only found out there was more than one family in each house when I moved on to the next household, it went No. 7, No. 8 then back to 7 then back to 8 again practically all through the street. Most strange unless they were actually split houses and now would be 7, 7a etc. What I did find out though as I went through trying to find the adjoining streets was that at No. 3 there was an Elizabeth Elliot. This may turn out to be Alfred's 2nd wife and my g grandmother. First possible lead I have had on her. So even though it looks as if Alfred didn't live there in 1871 so no lead on his 1st wife it may be good news after all. Thanks again Janet

FOR JANET Almost Hurruh - I found Livingstone Terrace in the end........the master index is missing anything between lei and lou!!!! With 42 discs and nearly 1000 istreet ndex pages........... Anyway No 8 Livingstone Terrace contains the family Taylor (Head born Colnbrooke Bucks). Large family - no other families in the same house Sorry Sylvie

FOR EILEEN - not David sorry! Not on the London census - pretty sure it is in middlesex, I used to go there in my teens! Sylvie

Hi Sylvie, Trust me to make a mistake. It is Wandsworth 8 Livingston Terrace, Wandsworth. On the 1881 census it comes between Edgill Street and Ferrier Street. If you do find it (hopefully) there appears to be more than one entry for each number. The family I am interested in is Alfred George born 1843 Battersea Thanks Janet

FOR TRACEY I'm struggling with this Do you know the registration district, is it on the 81 census? Sylvie

hi sylvie i thought it would it would be no go! do you know if middlesex is on a 1871 census? thanks anyway eileen

Hi David I don't think so unless you have an address (it would take all day - no three - to look through all the streets in HArrow) and you are sure Harrow on the Hill is in London - I thought it was in Middlesex?? Sorry Sylvie

hi sylivie could you please look up hellen gregory born 1860 in harrow on hill, on the 1871 she has been a brick for me for 6 months. so any info would be great! thanks eileen

Have I done this before? Looks like Bee - could be Pace at a push Margaret - born Nottinghamshire Joseph Thersa McHammond with Herbert Mary Let me know if you need fuller details Sylvie

Hi Sylvie, Could you please look up 29 Mark House Place, Walthamstow, Essex, E17. I'm looking for the name Clover, I know they were there in 1881 and wondered if they was there in 1871/1891 and who was there, Many thanks, Tracy.

FOR SHANNETTE Which census. I can't find Chamberlayne Mansions on the 1891 - or Willesden for that matter - I do have Kensal Green/Rise etc so it may just be that it was actually outside of the London area. I think yours is the last one I am dealing with at the moment so email me if you want me to look at the 71 or if you have more info. Sylvie

FOR JANET There is a Livinstone Road and a Livingstone Coots, both in Wandsworth. No record on the index of a Livinston Terrace - any more ideas about where it might be near - othr roads??? If not - it may be worth your going to Lost London Streets and having a nose around FOR SHIRLEY Simeon (or perhaps Simsom) Miles with Ellen, Upton Simeon Ellen Sarah Henry Can these names be real? Sorry they don't seem to be yours Sylvie

Sorry Sylvie just the 1871. Thank You. Lynda

For Sue I can find a Southfiels, Southfields Road and Terrace, a Southmead Road, South Parade, South Road and South Street but noi Southdean Gdns - any ideas? For Ruth There is an entry for 257 Southwark Bridge Road but there is nothing beside it - not even an entry to show that it is uninhabited - send me an email with the details again and I will browse through to the end of the area tonight - just incase it has been added at the end. ForThomas - there are Westbrookes, Barretts, Burgess, Rilett. Belsford and Crowther at that address For Alison, No Clilverds I'm afraid. Stanley Mews is uninhabited and I can only find Cold Bath Square, as Great Bath Street - at your number there are the names Colis Surrell and what looks like Yerlett. I had rellies in Stanley Mews too!!! These are disappointing results - but at least they tell you something!! Sylvie

Please could you check 2 Chamberlayne Mansions Willesden NW10 if you havetime I'm looking for a family named Clare. Thanks.

Please when you get time could you see who is living at 17 Prospect Ple Rotherhithe, Surrey. in 1871. I am looking for a Simpson family. Thanks Shirley

Hi Sylvie I can't give you an address but I can't find these in 1891 so just thought I would mention them in case you came across the name whilst doing a lookup for someone else. They should be in Islington Here they are in 1901 Fred Steggell 49 Suffolk Ipswich General Labourer Louisa Steggell 46 guernsey Charwoman Ellen Steggell 16 London Islington Mantle Presser Kate Steggell 13 London Islington Violet Steggell 3 London Islington Thanks

Hi Sylvie, Could you possibly look up for me in 1871 who was living at: - 8 Livingston Terrace, Battersea, London Thanks for the kind offer Janet

For Linda Which census - or both?? Sylvie
