1841 cumberland census help
« on: Sunday 15 September 24 19:04 BST (UK) »
Hi I have not been on in a while, I found out by doing my DNA that my father wasn't my father, after doing my family tree for 20 years, which was a huge shock.  But now I am trying to start a new tree with my new ancestors.  I have found this on family search which I think is the family I am looking for, but cant find it on ancestry, I do have a sub.   I am not sure how to search using the index numbers below.  Could anyone help me please.
Thanks
Angela

I found it on Find My Past. This is a very faint record and it has not been fully transcribed at Anc**.

If you search at Anc* for Susannah Bech, 1828, Lazonby Cumberland, the 1841 should be the top hit. The Glendennings start at the bottom two rows of that page., William and Jane. Eight children and a mother-in-law(?).

This should be a direct link to the image:

Ewan Close Lazonby, Cumberland
HO107/173 Bk 15 p 6

In Ancestry, go to Search, Card Catalogue, then in the "Title" box, enter "1841 census" and click Search. Select the "1841 England Census".
 Enter 173 in the "Piece" box, 6 in "Folio", 6 in "Page" and 15 in "Book", then click Search.
All the results for "Lazonby, Cumberland are for your page. The Bedfordshire ones are Ancestry's attempt at "next best" assuming you've made a mistake in one of those numbers.
The writing on the image is very faint (it's marginally better on FindMyPast). The enumerator must have been watering his ink!
Looking at ALSTON in south Ribble area, ALSTEAD and DONBAVAND/DUNBABIN etc. everywhere, HOWCROFT and MARSH in Bolton and Westhoughton, PICKERING in the Whitehaven area.
