Title: Lookup Request - 1921 Census
Post by: Sessylt on Saturday 23 August 25 15:30 BST (UK)
Hello all,

Could someone with access to the 1921 census (particularly, I suppose, via FindmyPast) please report the information or a photo of the following person:

Margaret
O'Brien
1833
Armagh, Ireland
Lowside Quarter
Whitehaven
Cumberland

I would be really grateful, thank you.

1921 lookups are not allowed by Rootschat for any info that can only be obtained via subscription.  The census entries do not have photos

Your local library probably has free Ancestry access & possibly FindMyPast as well

I can confirm that she is living alone but can’t find her on the 1911 census so she may have been in Ireland at that time - EDIT - See next reply
