There is a new category called UK, City and County Directories 1600-1900.  If you go onto that you get the name search menu.  The search isn't very good, or do I mean its to good? as you get loads of hits that you have to plough through.  At first I didn't find it but then I tried the house name Kelsie in the 'keyword' box and there it was.

I like looking through the directories, but as I say it does seem to be very slow. Maybe its just my old computer

it is STILL number 69, as on the house next door you can see the number 71 :)
