Hi Michael, Welcome to the mad world of genealogy. Ok this is what you do; As I can't remember the web address type in '1901 census' in a search engine. That will give you the 1901 census. Click on advanced person searh and fill in the boxes. Leave it as loose as possible as names etc can be mis-spelt. Anyway try this, put in farley and just Francis say aged 5 with a 5 year range. That will bring up 6 matches. I think this is yours Francis Farley aged 2, Sunbury, Middlesex. There is also another aged 5 in Buckingham. Putting in Lesley as well will not fetch up anyone in this case. Unfortunately you have to pay if you want to know who else is in the house but if you have some possible names mail me them and II will see if they are there as well. Good Luck, John I use a census decoder but I think for the time being play around with the census. Then either mail me or ask on here for help re the decoder. Good luck and hunting, John
