thanks. It's annoying that the 1861 Ely Census is missing as this one would hold a lot of answers to questions and guestimates.
Apparently the 1861 Ely pages were destroyed in a flood.

Yep the only rural missing pages in Sussex covers one of my families! Typical!
Didn't know about the Lincs ones, that could explain some problems there too!

I have 7 pages missing from the 1861 census in Whitehaven, Cumberland - not mentioned on that list. It could just be me, but the pages definitely jump from 6-14. The relatives I am looking for, after spending days looking for them, are on the pages missing.
Typical

How are you trying to access the Whitehaven pages? If its through rhe likes of Ancestry then it could be a scanning or linking problem with them.

It is through Ancestry, you're right. I was going to post on the Cumberland forum, in case somebody has a disc.
Thanks Andy, and welcome

Hi Subaru
Thanks for the welcome. I've come across a similar problem before with Ancestry and a missing page, fortunately it didn't affect me. I'm sure somebody on the Cumberland Forum will be able to help. I too have ancestors from Whitehaven so its handy to know of any potential problem. Findmypast.com also have the 1861 census so if I can't find people on Ancestry then I may try findmypast (not that I have used it before)

My Whitehaven interest is Candlish. They seemed to be mostly mariners who eventually drifted down to Liverpool.
Findmypast used to be 1837online but as I said I have never actually used them myself so I don't know what they are like

Findmypast seems to have moved the list in the first post, so here's an alternative link

Thomas Roberts & Mary Ann Walder 1864 Marriage
|
My ancestors were at 23 Colville Place, St Pancras, London in 1861 and the census returns for that page have gone missing. Typical as well. But I know all the details so it would not really tell me much new but knowing my luck there may have been an elderly aunt with them for all I know.
I wonder what happened to those missing pages in terms of losses, either flood, or just mislaid and are hiding in some vault somehwere awaiting to be discovered???

Perhaps this thread is a good place to ask.
When you click on a civil parish in Ancestry, it takes you to the enumeration districts. If the numbers are not consecutive, should we suspect that something is missing? Or is this quite normal?
I have just looked for North Harborne, Staffs, which has just two districts, 14 and 16. Should there be a 15?
I did once ask Ancestry about a similar "missing" district, and was told that they were "not aware of any missing district" (but they would say that, wouldn't they!)
