Charles Stanley (Belleville, Ontario)

[sami]

I found Charles and Henry through Ancestry and worked back through a number of pages to find the first entry for the family household listing, a Robert Wallace whose occupation is Head of Marchmont House. I keyed in only Charles Henry and a birth year of 1881.

The 1891 census is normally accessible for free through the Library and Archives Canada website but the website has been changed around and I haven't been able to figure out how to access the record that way now. Perhaps someone else knows how to do it now?

Yes. Can you explain how to get to the images from the LAC website? I couldn't figure out how to find them b/c I couldn't find anywhere to start a search from? When I click on Census of Canada, 1891 all I get is a page with general info about the census.

Legendary guys! Truly thank you. I have seen the census and I did just find Charles and Henry on a Marchmont house index. I've also just emailed a few organisations about records. Thank you Karen.

Has anyone else had experience tracking down Home Children? Someone else had sent me military enlistment records for a few Charles Stanleys but I'm not sure if a 10 year old shipped off to Canada for work would put his next of kin as someone in the UK 10 years later…or recall their address for that matter.

From the LAC page - once you get to the 1891 census - in the upper left corner click on Search: 1891 Census. You get to the following search page:
