Thanks for your help Samspade!!!

The family lived at 11 Tyne Street early on in 1891 as per the baptism record.

Tyne Street? where and what year?

Justine,
you can't search on street names on Ancestry.I use a different site.And I'm afraid if the piece is missing it's cause the original is missing.

I'm getting excited - didn't know you could search the census by street!!! I know I'll probably not find out much more about the family but it's one of the last bits of my jigsaw.

How about Tyne St.? Is it there?

Justine

Justine Report 26 Nov 2008 16:42

Will the original be somewhere to look through manually, is it just cause it's not been scanned in??
And how did you do that?? I've access to ancestry.

Think I've found out why we can't find him in 1891 Cuthbert street Hebburn,Durham isn't there!! must be a missing piece.

I will have a look and see who was living in cuthbert st in 1891 for you x

Justine Report 26 Nov 2008 16:33

wow!!!!

yes Margaret all good stuff, but I can't find him in 1891!!!! ha ha

on 21st January 1891 I know from baptism record of son George Foster, he lived at 11 Tyne Street, Hebburn, County Durham

and on 3rd May 1893 I know from daughter Mary Elizabeths baptism he lived at 26 Cuthbert Street, Hebburn, County Durham

But where was he on the 1891 census night??? Is it possible to search the census using addresses??? If so I haven't worked out a way to do it. They must be misspelled somewhere!!! do you think???

Thank you to everyone who's replied!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
