Found this while browsing and wondered if anyone had tried to do it.Although the Census Returns are only available for public inspection if over one hundred years old, it is possible to obtain information for more recent returns from the National Register Office. In these cases it is necessary to provide the surname and christian name of the person, and the precise address, together with written permission of that person or a direct descendant, and to sign a declaration that the information will not be used in litigation. The fee required for this is quite high and consequently this is a source only to be used as a last resort. It might be worth a try if your really stuck
