The Linden, 51, Craigcrook Road, Edinburgh

[Ruskie]

You can see the shop on this map, built earlier than the neighbouring houses:

Not sure about all of this. Is this the correct house or is it not? 

Knowing where this date and address came from might help.

I cannot find, where i got this number, on census and valuation roll the house is only called "The Linden".

good Night

Which census did you find this address? The 1901?

If you look at the neighbours and their addresses to follow the enumerator’s route, this can sometimes help to estimate the location of a property. At least it should tell you if The Linden was situated on Craigcrook Road.

What is the name of the family who lived there?

What was the occupation of the head of household? If he was “grocer” for example then it is likely to be the shop.

[Ruskie]

Head of household Wilhelm was a shopkeeper at this address in the 1901 census so this shop is probably correct.

An old thread of yours gives more details:

If I were you I would double check by looking at the neighbours. The style of the shop makes me think it could have been there in 1901 but I am not certain of that.

I did a pause for five years in researching, so i am a little bit confused, starting now again. But i found my mistake : 51 is in census 1901 the number of Schedule (i blush).
In 1911 the neighbours of Wilhelm Kuhn and his Family are: „Edgewood“, ..William D. Hog, „Cassadale“(?)….John A. Small and to the other Side: 1 Keith Row….John Burcher .

In Wilhelms Kuhn Will:

That is OK Brigitte. It is an easy mistake to make.

I don’t have access to the 1901 census at the moment so can’t look this up myself, but if you can provide more (probably at least four or five addresses) either side of Wilhelm and family I’m sure we will be able to find The Lindens.

Good morning and thank you.

Some 30 odd years ago I viewed a house in Craigcrook Road and whether it was named "The Linden" I cannot remember.    However the house and garden were developed and is now Cottage Park (1984)
named, no doubt,  after the field shown in earlier OS maps where there was a Ravelston Cottage.

Craigcrook is a long road. 

I believe this row of houses is “Keith Row”:
