Title: 1851 census look up please
Post by: Stewart R on Friday 19 December 25 18:19 GMT (UK)
I was wondering if someone could do a look up an entry in the 1851 census please.
The Person in question is Diggory Mark, with possibly his wife Jane.
I have found some info on Familysearch that states they were located at Saint John The Evangelist, Middlesex on this census. However i think that may just be the parish. my particular interest is because i belive they and their family had been admited to a Poor house in 1832 and i'm wondering if they made it out. I only have an Ancestry subscription at the moment but they dont seem to have the record available.

Regards

Stewart

Thank you Heywood. It seems that the "Similar & Sounds like" option didn't pick that one up ::)

it seems that Diggory (Digamy) was deaf and/or Blind, hence the poor house in 1832. Still can't quite make out the address though.

I searched Dig* Mark.
The street is Medway Street and looks as though those families are all at number 1.

Looking at the flanking pages, I think it must be Medway Street.
