I have decide that for the netx few months I want to put some flesh on my family tree and so would like to learn more about the houses they lived in and the work they did. Has anyone suggestions they would share with me as to how to achieve this...I also have decided to learn more about their occupations. |

I've thought of doing this for my daughter's house which was built in 1850. |

Sounds a daft question Birdi, but is it possible to search census by address or road name? |

First you have to check with the local reference library,to find out if the houses have ever been renumbered. |

I borrowed a book from the library which was a history of the occupants of a Surrey Cottage. |
