Hi,
I am after a favour please.
I have been 'growing' my tree on here for several years now and am now tidying up loose ends. I have been gathering all documents to back up my findings and have come upon a small problem. On this website and find my past I have discovered the 1871 census for the following family member, but am only a standard member, therefore can not access the info I need to print. I am presently a full member on anc.co.uk but for some reason these census details are not on there, unless I am being incredibly stupid as have looked for hours. . I am hoping someone will read this with full access on genes and be able to email me a copy of the said census. I realise I could get some pay for view credits, but not sure how much that will show me.
The details are Richard W Daniell b1847, Mary Daniell b1848, Mary Daniell b1870 all living in Shoreditch on 1871 census. I have them on all other census' but not this one. Those are the only details I have needed to put in to find them on Genes and FMP.
Thank you

Always a good idea to look at familysearch, where 1871 is in full, and free?

Using
https://familysearch.org/search/collection/list#page=1®ion=UNITED_KINGDOM_IRELAND
and, later on:
https://familysearch.org/catalog-search

FS now uses the FMP/GR transcription for all English censuses.
Ancestry uses its own transciption, except for 1881 (where it uses the old, superceded, FS transcription).


Actually, the old FS transcription is slightly flawed - it gives the same census ref # for the whole h/h.

[For an example, look up 1881 for Barbara Atherton - it's the Wigan hit we want:
Everyone in the h/h gets
PIECE: 3765 FOLIO: 62 PAGE NUMBER: 10

FS now gives https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:XQXH-YJC
So Barbara and Thos thru Thos get:
Affiliate Publication Number: RG11
Piece/Folio: 3765 / 62
Page Number: 10
But the rest are on the next page, and get:
Affiliate Publication Number: RG11
Piece/Folio: 3765 / 63
Page Number: 11 ]


FS only put the whole h/h together for 1871-1881

Here's your mob in 1871:
https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:VRJD-XSV
the footer gives a partial ref:
citing PRO RG 10, folio 17, p. 27, Shoreditch registration district, Hoxton New Town subdistrict, ED 4, household 153, The National Archives, Kew, Surrey; FHL microfilm 823,360
We can check and everyone in the h/h got PRO RG 10, folio 17, p. 27

Now we can do an FS catalog search for film # 823360
1871 RG 10/445-448; Family History Library; British Film; 823360

We could do a search at http://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/ for rg10/445 then rg10/448, but both get:
Shoreditch registration district, Hoxton New Town subdistrict (so rg10/446 and rg10/447 do too).
It probably is a waste of time in a city, but could help in a rural area.

So we know the piece # is in the range 445-448.
Ancestry lets one search using the census ref - or even a partial census ref - one can also add in personal details, like name, etc.
A search for rg10/445/17/27 thru rg10/448/27/27 gets 4 pages of hits.
Rg10 identifies the 1871 census, and is implicit if one searches at:
http://search.ancestry.co.uk/search/db.aspx?dbid=7619

It's easy to spot them on rg10/446/17/27


One could proceed similarly for
1881 https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:X3L6-TDN
[rg11/411/9/11]

FS gives no similar info for 1891, 1901 or 1911.
(Ancestry has removed the use of census refs for 1891 searches
I believe the ref for 1891 is rg12/257/14/16 - one can search Ancestry using 257 14 16 as a keyword - but it pulls in other junk - ther're 84 hits from a 31 line page).

1891 https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:Q4WP-3ZM
1901 https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:X9D8-CJJ
[rg13/286/40/9]
1911 https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:XWG6-LLS
[rg14/1169 - normally each 1911 piece # covers one enumerator's district.
However, institutions (and vessels in port) were grouped together into a piece.
rg14/1169 coveres ED 30-38 - Mary's an inmate in ED 30, but I don't know what sort of indtitution it is]
