It's a bit of work if you trying to do it for free - you can't really get the info that a sub buys, but you can make a fair bit of a show with effort. Lets take as an example a father & son - Paddy Freeman - their farm later formed a chunk of a Newcastle park (Jesmond Dene). So we'll look them up in 1861. We can do a free search at Ancestry. (I do an old style search of the "Census and Voter Lists" for England 1861 - exact matches & exact spelling) I look for Patrick Freeman, s/o Patrick - there's only 1 hit. |

I couldn't live without Ancestry. Apart from census records it has a wealth of other stuff, depending on the type of subscription you have. |

I am looking in GR. The funny thing is I have a copy of a full census report and to be honest I havn't a clue how I got it, I only know that it was from the 1851 census with a reference H.O. 107/2423 (38 126). |

Where are you searching for census records? is it on GR, if its on GR you cannot view the next or previous page, which would show the rest of the family if they are either at the bottom or top of the page. |

Can anyone advise me how to get the census sheets which supply all members of the family living in the same house during the census. When I do a census search I seem to only get the person I've named. I hope this makes sense. |
