St Paul’s Road, Islington
« on: Tuesday 24 September 24 17:46 BST (UK) »
Hello,

I’m currently researching an address in Islington. I can find the address (18 St. Paul’s Road) on early census returns, but I can’t find it in 1911 or on the 1939 Register.

Does anyone know if the address changed over the years? Or were the census returns lost/destroyed? I can find the bigger numbers but not number 18! Seems odd…

I don’t know who lived there (I’m trying to do the history of the house) so it’s all a bit hit and miss.

Thanks, Selby

If I have the correct St Pauls Road you should be able to find the 1911 at Ancestry by searching for Thomas Donald Kent, born 1909

Do you have access to online papers (FindMyPast or BNA)? The Islington Gazette is covered - eg

27 Mar 1868
