Hi
Is someone able to search the 1901 census for me please.
Rachel Hambidge - born 1810-1812 - Faringdon, Berkshire.
I know this is where she was still living in 1901.
Also believe she died in 1902 at Union Workhouse, Faringdon. Does anyone know how I can get details of this, other than her death certificate.

Many thanks, Sarah
