St Bartholomew's Hospital, Sandwich
« on: Wednesday 03 October 07 16:45 BST (UK) »

 I'm having trouble finding census returns for these almshouses. I know which parish and enumeration district they should be in but the returns seem to stop short just before St Bart's.

By chance I found a return in the 1841 census. But, along with the town goal, which said St Clement's, it was in St James' which is Dover!

Help please.   Finnisfinder.

Hi Finnisfinder

It's coming up under Sandwich St Bartholomew in the 1881 census on FamilySearch.

Hi Finnisfinder

In those early census returns, "institutions" were listed at ends of districts/hundreds etc. so that might explain any "misplacement":
