I can do the look ups but I do need an exact address with a house number and district, preferably a registraion district otherwise I have to guess by using a contemporary map and that all takes time. I'm not sure of what response I will get and how much time it would take so in the first instance can we keep the requests down to about 10. After that I will have more idea of how much time it takes - Sylvie Update NB It takes my laptop 15+ minutes to scan the 991 pages of the 71 Street Indexes for the whole of London so being specific about an area does help enormously. I will post another offer next week sometime. I think these are all done - let me know if I've missed you Sylvie

Hi Sylvie Could I ask you to look on 1891 please? 66 Southdean Gardens Southfields ( may be Wandsworth) Thank you very much Sue

Hi Sylvie, would appreciate a llok on 1871 for 20 George st,Bethnal Green, Looking for Vanner's,cheers,Tony.

Sylvie Please could you look who lived at 37 Hollingworth Street, (St)Pancras or possibly Islington, I am looking for the name Pace. I also have the 1851 census for London if you would like any look ups. Lynda

Please could you see if there are any Clilverds living at 10 Stanley Mews in 1871 and to be cheeky and ask for another 16 Grt Bath st London Thanks a lot

For Linda Which census - or both?? Sylvie

Hi Sylvie, Could you possibly look up for me in 1871 who was living at: - 8 Livingston Terrace, Battersea, London Thanks for the kind offer Janet

Hi Sylvie I can't give you an address but I can't find these in 1891 so just thought I would mention them in case you came across the name whilst doing a lookup for someone else. They should be in Islington Here they are in 1901 Fred Steggell 49 Suffolk Ipswich General Labourer Louisa Steggell 46 guernsey Charwoman Ellen Steggell 16 London Islington Mantle Presser Kate Steggell 13 London Islington Violet Steggell 3 London Islington Thanks

Please when you get time could you see who is living at 17 Prospect Ple Rotherhithe, Surrey. in 1871. I am looking for a Simpson family. Thanks Shirley

Please could you check 2 Chamberlayne Mansions Willesden NW10 if you havetime I'm looking for a family named Clare. Thanks.

For Sue I can find a Southfiels, Southfields Road and Terrace, a Southmead Road, South Parade, South Road and South Street but noi Southdean Gdns - any ideas? For Ruth There is an entry for 257 Southwark Bridge Road but there is nothing beside it - not even an entry to show that it is uninhabited - send me an email with the details again and I will browse through to the end of the area tonight - just incase it has been added at the end. ForThomas - there are Westbrookes, Barretts, Burgess, Rilett. Belsford and Crowther at that address For Alison, No Clilverds I'm afraid. Stanley Mews is uninhabited and I can only find Cold Bath Square, as Great Bath Street - at your number there are the names Colis Surrell and what looks like Yerlett. I had rellies in Stanley Mews too!!! These are disappointing results - but at least they tell you something!! Sylvie

Sorry Sylvie just the 1871. Thank You. Lynda

FOR JANET There is a Livinstone Road and a Livingstone Coots, both in Wandsworth. No record on the index of a Livinston Terrace - any more ideas about where it might be near - othr roads??? If not - it may be worth your going to Lost London Streets and having a nose around FOR SHIRLEY Simeon (or perhaps Simsom) Miles with Ellen, Upton Simeon Ellen Sarah Henry Can these names be real? Sorry they don't seem to be yours Sylvie

FOR SHANNETTE Which census. I can't find Chamberlayne Mansions on the 1891 - or Willesden for that matter - I do have Kensal Green/Rise etc so it may just be that it was actually outside of the London area. I think yours is the last one I am dealing with at the moment so email me if you want me to look at the 71 or if you have more info. Sylvie

Hi Sylvie, Could you please look up 29 Mark House Place, Walthamstow, Essex, E17. I'm looking for the name Clover, I know they were there in 1881 and wondered if they was there in 1871/1891 and who was there, Many thanks, Tracy.

Have I done this before? Looks like Bee - could be Pace at a push Margaret - born Nottinghamshire Joseph Thersa McHammond with Herbert Mary Let me know if you need fuller details Sylvie

hi sylivie could you please look up hellen gregory born 1860 in harrow on hill, on the 1871 she has been a brick for me for 6 months. so any info would be great! thanks eileen

Hi David I don't think so unless you have an address (it would take all day - no three - to look through all the streets in HArrow) and you are sure Harrow on the Hill is in London - I thought it was in Middlesex?? Sorry Sylvie

hi sylvie i thought it would it would be no go! do you know if middlesex is on a 1871 census? thanks anyway eileen

Hi Sylvie, Trust me to make a mistake. It is Wandsworth 8 Livingston Terrace, Wandsworth. On the 1881 census it comes between Edgill Street and Ferrier Street. If you do find it (hopefully) there appears to be more than one entry for each number. The family I am interested in is Alfred George born 1843 Battersea Thanks Janet
