IS it the whole of london or are they still adding? i havent managed to find any of my lot that i know were there then.

linda thanks for the offer, but its ok i have looked on there myself this morning, was just trying to figure if whats there is the end of it, maybe i will find them in a couple of days when they have added some more info marie- ann ancestry(.)co(.)uk, and go into uk census collection Julie

I found 2 families straight of that i cant find in 1891, what a result!! Definately worth the sub now!

Clare I have the 1871 census on disc, but couldn't find my family, but turned out to be in a road I hadn't looked at, just around the corner from where I had looked. Great when you find them isn't it? Lynda

Yes Lynda, im really chuffed, shame about the quality of the pages ive looked at though, is the disk the same?

Clare Some are better than others, if you have a problem reading one, send the details and I'll see if my discs are any better quality. Lynda

Hi,Linda, Would you be kind enough to look for Jane Catherine McFarlane on the 1871? She would be about 21. Many thanks

Hi Diane On Ancestry there is a Jane Mcfarlane 16 years, who is an adopted daughter born Shoreditch. The name of the family is Gover. Any good? Lynda

Lynda,I don;t know! the name Gover means nothing to me [yet!] but you can never tell! Thank you for looking

Hi Lynda, Any chance you could look for Zilpah Truman and family for me please ? I can see there are two matches in the search results, but don't have access to look at them. Should be mother & daughter. Thanks, Rick.

Hi Lynda, I've asked you before before but maybe with this new part on Ancestry I might be lucky too. Could you please look for the family of Richard Pegram b 4 Oct 1863 Stoke Newington London and Julia Mantle born 26 Jan 1865 Islington London. Thanks very much Lynda, Christine

Hi Lynda, Thanks very much - you've come up trumps again ! Does it give you an address ? The good news for me is this probably means a whole lot of my missing ancestors are now in the index - might be bothering you for a few more lookups if you don't mind. Zilpah is a biblical name - a servant girl if I remember rightly. The family pass the name on for generation after generation although the spelling sometimes changes to Zilpha or Zelpha. I thought this was going to make tracing them back very easy until I found out that the older Zilpah's maiden name was Smith and her father was William !!! George was a confectioner and before that some sort of leather worker - does it look like either of those ? Sounds like Charlton gave you a run for your money in the last minutes. Pleased we picked up 3 points too. Can't see either us or ManU catching you now though. Off for beer and curry with my Arsenal and Newcastle mates now. Thanks again, Rick.

Rick Address is 34 New Road West? occupation Can only make out W?h???ster not much help eh? Can do more look ups, but out to a party tonight and at work tomorrow in Brighton, so won't be able to do anything until the evening. Enjoy your night. Lynda

Hi Christine Nothing for Julia Mantle, but here is Richard Pegram Lived at 1 ???? cottage, Stoke Newington sorry but the name is unclear James Pegram 46 S??ker b Epping Mary Anne 43 b. Stapleford Alice Mary 15 daughter James 13 son Hannah Ellen 12 daughter George William 9 son All above born West Ham Richard 7 son Walter Harry son Above born Stoke Newington Hope this helps. Lynda

Lynda, That's fantastic! I didn't have James' wife before - on the 1881 James was a stoker at the waterworks and they lived at New River Co Cottage. Richard age 7 is my ggrandfather. I just received an email from someone else and they have found my ggrandmother Julia Mantle - it was transcribed as Mautte so I'm a very happy girl! Christine
