Is there any way you can discover what number in a particular street a 1901 census entry is?

Reference number RG13 4547, 24, 40 shows Long street, Thirsk, North Yorkshire but no numbers.

Have you looked on the image itself? What name is it you are looking at?

Hmm, see what you mean, a not particularly diligent enumerator.

No Kaz, thats the schedule no. the house no should be to the right of that.

The numbers at the side are schedule numbers, not house numbers.

You could try looking at the 1891 census, or historical directories.

Is it crucial to your research?

If so, which is the name you are following?

Hi folks and thanks for your replies. This question is for my son in law, I'll have to ask him which family it is.
