London and Middlesex / Occupants of one household 1902
« on: Thursday 20 November 25 15:16 GMT (UK)  »
Please can anyone help me find who was living at 15 Cambridge Street, Pimlico SW1 in 1902?
I'm pretty sure it will be tenants rather than the owner.

I can't use 1901 Census because don't know any names!
 
(I think FindMyPast might use searches by address but I haven't got a sub at present.  ??? )

The Common Room / Re: Ages on Indexes (Deaths)

Thanks for all your of replies.

I remember now that the early indexes don't include ages. I suppose that I was hoping to get an adult rather than a baby! (Sometimes GRO gets it wrong).

The year in question is 1852.
         
Both sites accept Unknown instead of the Surname.

Please can anyone help me with a question about ages on Indexes of Death - GRO and FreeBMD?

I have an entry for an 'Unknown Male' which appears on GRO as '0', and as blank on FreeBMD.
 
Thanks,
Melbell

I apologise for the muddle I have caused by my misunderstanding of the digitalisation process.

I have received only one 'chopped off' image. This was a couple of years ago. 

Not understanding, I requested a 'duplicate', and of course GRO sent me the same image as before. (I didn't pursue the matter further - could be bothered, too much hassle, not vital to my research).

The resulting thread has been interesting anyway! Thank you.

Sorry for any misunderstanding, but I've done this at least twice (using the form referred to in tillypeg's post).

I must be complicating things...? :-\

You can apply for a re-issue with no charge.  :)
