Technical Help / Loading Street Directory data on PC database
« on: Tuesday 24 April 07 19:19 BST (UK)  »
The 1911 Street Directory comes on CD but is only searchable by street not names.  Does anyone know if it is technically possible to extract the data to download to a database or spreadsheet program on PC to improve searching and data manipulation?

London & Middlesex Completed Lookup Requests / Re: 1871 Census - Can't find White Swan Yard Whitechapel
« on: Monday 23 April 07 18:48 BST (UK)  »
Thank you all very much for your efforts.  The Abrahams family at no. 3 Swan Yard are relatives, Samuel probably the brother.  My lot did move in there probably after the census, as my greataunt Rebecca was born there Dec 1871.

How do I sign this off as completed now? ;) ;)

London & Middlesex Completed Lookup Requests / COMPLETED-1871 Census - Can't find White Swan Yard Whitechapel
« on: Monday 23 April 07 13:06 BST (UK)  »
I have searched the 1871 online Census for White Swan Yard (St. Mary, Whitechapel) for which I have an 1862 reference so defininitely existed then and also a greataunt was born there as per her birth certificate.  Is it possible that the records have not been computerised?  Does anyone have any ideas what I can do next to find out?

Thanks. :-[

Shanko found this for me on another request which happens to include Anne Steel (nee Abrahams)

Civil Parish - Spitalfields
Ecc Parish - Christchurch
Registration District - Whitechapel
Sub-Registration District - Spitalfields

73 Hanbury Street

Jacob ABRAHAMS Head Married 60 Tailor   Germany
Rachel ABRAHAMS Wife Married 58             Germany
Joseph ABRAHAMS Son Single 20 Tailor   England
Anne ABRAHAMS Daughter Married 23 Cigar Maker England

This is the definitive Anne Steel but where oh where is Jacob?  He isn't included in the BMD Death Index for 1900-1901.

They were married 11 March 1900, so if any child would be aged 0. Yes I have marriage certificate. Jacob's occupation on marriage cert looks like Hair something indecipherable!! They were married from 69 Hanbury Street E1.  Annie was born Spitalfields, Jacob in Russia Poland.

Can anyone please help me trace the Steel Family Jacob and Annie, both aged about 23 at the 1901 Census? They were living in London probably in the East End, Whitechapel, Spitalfields, etc.

Many thanks.

P.S.  Annie was born Annie Abrahams in Spitalfields Apr-Jun 1878 and Jacob Russia/Poland
