You say the family are listed there in 1852 - what are they listed in? Have you found them there in the 1851 census ? If so what are the piece and page number? What's the family name?

Hi Shaun J
Thanks for your message.
The information was in a letter i recd from Surrey History. They advised my family are shown in the 1852 Electoral Register, Burstow Parish, in Eastern District, polling District of Reigate in Burstow Court Lodge Farm but that his actual address was 51 Luton Place, Manor Street, Clapham.
So i assume he owned the House, possibly rented out?, but actually lived and worked Burstow.

It would help to know the name of your relative.

I can't find a record of a Luton Place in Clapham. There is a Langan Place in Manor Street in the 1851 census, where the occupants appear to be fairly wealthy (names Scott, Butler, Streatfield, Duprez).

There was an Acton Place in Manor Street - mentioned in the Old Bailey in 1851 as home of Temperance Caroline Baker

It would help to know the name of your relative.

There is a Joseph H Turner, Land And Ship Owner, Burstow Lodge in the 1851 Census, is this him?
