How can I find out the names of all the houses in LLANRHYSTUD or LLANRHYSTYD in 1841 ? ( CARDIGANSHIRE district ABERYSTWYTH sometimes spelt Aberystwith. )
Also is there an easy way to see all the REES families who lived in Llanrhysted in 1841?
I have been trying to go through the census but I think I am making it difficult for myself
MANY THANKS.

Not sure which site you are searching on but on Ancestry just using Rees for the surname and Llanrhystyd (notice spelling!) for the sub registration district should bring them all up.

To find the house names, you need to bring up an image and then page backwards and forwards through all the images.

The 1841 census is not very good with full address's normally just get the name of the road

Researching:
Nothing much

o.k. thanks - maybe it would be better to use a later census. I have a marriage certificate 1839 with the name of the house/road and it is VERY difficult to decipher other than the three first letters. I will go on looking!! Thank you
