Hi I am trying to find Samuel and Mary Ann Mitchell both born in Taunton c1835. They appear on the 1881 LDS census and on the Genes 1901 census but I can't find them on the 1891 census. In 1881 the were at 4Jane St Bradford and in 1901 they were at 47 Rufford St Bradford. Thanks

Hi Kath
Thank you so much. This is indeed my family. I haven't heard of Citation before could you tell me what it is?

Source Citation simply means that the numbers that follow are the reference numbers to the page in the census where the information can be found.

In this case:-

RG12 is the reference for the 1891 census
The piece number and folio numbers are a particular part of the census
The page number is just that - a page number.
