Title: 1881 Enumeration district Birmingham please
Post by: IOW Maiden on Tuesday 16 August 11 21:02 BST (UK)
Hello is there anyone who can tell me what enumeration district number I would need to find Edward Street, Ladywood, St Marks in the 1881 census, thats where my family were living in 1891, they were certainly there in 1885 when one of their childrens birth was registered and they were living in the Ladywood distict in 1871, but as much as I have tried I cannot find them in 1881.I need the number so that I can go through each page if I have to.

thankyou iow maiden

Sorry - I thought it would be just as easy to you to go to the census reference I gave and start from there.

It is Ladywood, Enumeration District 25.
