Title: 1841 cumberland census help
Post by: fossey on Sunday 15 September 24 19:04 BST (UK)
Hi I have not been on in a while, I found out by doing my DNA that my father wasn't my father, after doing my family tree for 20 years, which was a huge shock.  But now I am trying to start a new tree with my new ancestors.  I have found this on family search which I think is the family I am looking for, but cant find it on ancestry, I do have a sub.   I am not sure how to search using the index numbers below.  Could anyone help me please.
Thanks
Angela

I found it on Find My Past. This is a very faint record and it has not been fully transcribed at Anc**.

If you search at Anc* for Susannah Bech, 1828, Lazonby Cumberland, the 1841 should be the top hit. The Glendennings start at the bottom two rows of that page., William and Jane. Eight children and a mother-in-law(?).

This should be a direct link to the image:

In Ancestry, go to Search, Card Catalogue, then in the "Title" box, enter "1841 census" and click Search. Select the "1841 England Census".
 Enter 173 in the "Piece" box, 6 in "Folio", 6 in "Page" and 15 in "Book", then click Search.
All the results for "Lazonby, Cumberland are for your page. The Bedfordshire ones are Ancestry's attempt at "next best" assuming you've made a mistake in one of those numbers.
The writing on the image is very faint (it's marginally better on FindMyPast). The enumerator must have been watering his ink!
