Address Look Up?
« on: Sunday 02 December 18 21:44 GMT (UK) »
Hi All,

Is it possible to find out who lived in a house in a particular year ( 1936 in this case) in Wood Green London?

Cheers

Ken

It may be covered in the London electoral rolls on Ancestry.

If you have a hunch as to who might be there you’d do better to look up by name, though, and read across to the address, as the indexing of addresses in this dataset (done by OCR) is not reliable.
Ayr: Barnes, Wylie
Caithness: MacGregor
Essex: Eldred (Pebmarsh)
Gloucs: Timbrell (Winchcomb)
Hants: Stares (Wickham)
Lincs: Maw, Jackson (Epworth, Belton)
London: Pierce
Suffolk: Markham (Framlingham)
Surrey: Gosling (Richmond)
Wilts: Matthews, Tarrant (Calne, Preshute)
Worcs: Milward (Redditch)
Yorks: Beaumont, Crook, Moore, Styring (Huddersfield); Middleton (Church Fenton); Exley, Gelder (High Hoyland); Barnes, Birchinall (Sheffield); Kenyon, Wood (Cumberworth/Denby Dale)

Not knowing where you live, it's difficult to offer concrete advice but . . .

Many libraries offer free access to Ancestry Library Edition.
