Place of birth from census
« on: Thursday 14 June 18 06:39 BST (UK) »
Morning,

I have an open thread in the common room about an ancestor that may have travelled from Yorkshire to London and back in the early 1800’s.

http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=794980.0

This is the birth location for a Mary Ann Graham (born Hodgson) from the 1951 census in Caldwell, Yorkshire.

Can anyone make out what the word is between Middlesex and London?

Thank you for any help.

What is the census reference so we can compare with the rest of the page

Is it perhaps simply a very twiddly "in"?  ???

I agree with Rosie - a bit more of the page for comparison would be good.

I see it as an error that has been crossed and overwritten with London but, like the others, I'd like the census reference as I can't see it in a quick search  and your other thread suggests that she was in Caldwell in 1861 not 1851.

I've just looked and I think the enumerator was about to write Yorkshire, C?? and corrected it - see the snip below

It only really reads  Middlesex London
