Title: 1891 census
Post by: garethnash on Friday 26 September 08 19:16 BST (UK)

Can anyone find Pershore Street in Birmingham easily on the census?

I am looking for the occupants of both 19 and 21. Two years before the census my ancestors  lived at these addresses when they married and I am hoping family members may still be there.

Thanks.

Unfortunately not my connection....

In 1889 Joseph Sheldon was residing at 19 Pershore Street when he got married, his father was george sheldon. Joseph was born in West Bromwich.

The wife Joseph married was Florence Sheldon and she lived at 21 Pershore Street. Her parents were Benjamin and Maria Taylor.

I can find Jospeh and Florence on the 1891 census but to take the Sheldon leg of the family back I was hoping to find George Sheldon and his wife / kids.
