1881 census look-up --S. Leith
« on: Saturday 09 June 07 02:07 BST (UK) »
Does anyone have any type of access to the 1881 census for S.Leith,Midlothian?
I tried the LDS site ,no luck and my last resort  will be to "pay the piper"at Scts.
Ances,does not show the original,just a print out.

I am looking to find :
JANE DICKSON age 63,supposedly born 1818 in Hutton ,Berwick. address 8 Elbe Street,
occupation,Annuitant.
What I want to know is..is she living alone or are there others in the household,if so who.
Thanks so much in advance....

There are 6 separate households at that address.  Jane is the only one in her particular household and shown as a widow.

The others are all families: a yarn dyer, a coachman, a carter and two joiners.

Thank you so very much for that info.
I,ve had her paper trailed from birth (1815),through marriage  to John Mills (no date yet) to her death in 1896....BUT...could not find her in 1881...Yikes.....she used her maiden name this year....interesting...but I am very sure that is her.
The annuity bit is the clincher.
Again,MANY thanks.!!

No, 'fraid not.  No-one named Mills living in the same street even.
