1891 - Absolutely desperate!

[KA]

Can somebody please do a looking up for 17 Victoria Street, Gateshead on the 1891 Census please.

Have managed to track down that my family were living there in August 1891 on the burial records of one of their children. Gatehead Cemetary Department have managed to find the records for me.

Hopefully I should find my Atkinson family there.

I would be really, really grateful if somebody could help me on this.

Hello KA

Do you have any forenames and approx ages to help narrow the search?

thanks

James and Caroline Atkinson (parents) He is a hairdresser,but he is dying of TB, so may not be there.
They will have a Minnie b. 1886
Caroline b. 1890
Margaret b. 1888
Possibly a Robert, b. 1885

Had countless name searches, and they  have never shown up.  Not even a sniff.  Thought they had slipped through the net.  But now I've been able to find an address for 1891, I'm hoping that may show something on that.

I don't know if this will help you but I notaced you said some one had TB .There was a outbreak in Newcastle of TB in the lait 1800s and a lot of families were taken out of there homes and put in Isolation to try and halt it there were two  Fever hospitals I think the big one was Holy Jesus Hospital it was at the bottom of the Tyne bridge

Not really.

The reason this family are so important to me is that James and Caroline were not married in 1881.  And he died in 1898.  I can find some of the family, scattered in 1901.  But I really wanted to find them on the 1891 as it would be the only one where they were together.

I was informed that the 1891 could be searched by address?  So, as nothing was showing for their names, I moved onto finding a 1891 address for them.

Is that address not showing up at all?  If not, perhaps they did slip the census net.

Hi Caroline

I can;t search the version of 1891 that I have by address, only by enumeration district.

Do you have a surname for Caroline, if they were not married?  Were the scattered family going under the Atkinson name?

I can't find a right age match for any of the children, even looking for mistranscriptions such as Aitchison etc.  If James wasn;t with them, maybe they were transcribed under Caroline's surname?

Hi,
I typed in Victoria St in the keyword field and I found a 17 Victoria Street, Gateshead, Durham. However, there were no Atkinson's there. I don't know if there are any other Victoria Streets in Gateshead.

Regards

Richard.

Hi,

Ignore my last post - it was the 1881 census, not the 1891 I was looking in.
I'll see if it works on the 1891 as well.
