Hi
I seem to have hit a brick wall in relation to search on the 1901 census, i cannot seem to find a family anywhere here in Langham Norfolk, i have found them on the 1891 census for Langham as follows
Piece RG12/1560 Place, Wells-Norfolk, Enur District 4, Civil parish, Langham, Folio 36 page 4 schedule 16,  Address 5 School Yard.

Massingham  William     Head M   age 31  Ag Lab  born Langham
Massingham  Eva S        Wife  M   age  26       born Blakeney Norfolk

followed by 4 children  Rosie,Florence, Richard W, Earnest

We have also found William as a very young child on the 1861 census RG9/1247 Wells-Norfolk, Langham, Folio 51,page 10, schedule 55 father given as George J age 28 born Field Dalling, Norfolk......  Mother Elizabeth age 23, Born Langham, Norfolk plus 3children John, George J, William (William is the Father on the 1891 census) but we cannot find any census for 1871 and 1881...a complete blank......
       Any help gratefully relieved

Her name was actually Evaline or Evalina, similar to Salina so maybe spelling issue . Thanks for your quick reply😀
