Help please finding Property in Aberystwyth on Census
« on: Monday 30 December 19 10:54 GMT (UK) »
Am trying to Research the History of a House on the Boundary Edge of 3 Parishes,  Aberystwyth , Llanbadarn Fawr, Llanychaiarn.
Because the Owner or Occupier varied each Census I have used Ancestry for each Census the selected Cardiganshire then Aberystwyth then gone through each District to find the District then each page therein and found :-
1841 Cardiganshire, Aberystwyth, Llanbadarn Fawr, District 6 Page 7 of 8
1851 Cardiganshire, Aberystwyth, Llanbadarn Fawr, Llanrhystud, District 2e page 35 of 40
1861 can't  find property.
1871 Cardiganshire, Aberystwyth, District 5, entry 311 page 51 of 53
1881 can't find property
1891 can't find property
1901 can't find property
1911 Cardiganshire, Aberystwyth, District 6 pages 410 & 411 of 693
1939 Cardiganshire, Aberystwyth RD District ZHDK page 4 of 5

If any Genie is better at Searching than I am
I would gladly welcome your help in finding those missing Census years,
Perhaps the boundary changed ?

I would have thought that if the parish is Aberystwythat beginning, middle & end of your census list, it is likely to be the same in the unfound years. I don't think parish boundaries changed back and forth so much.

Have you tried looking at old maps on https://maps.nls.uk/os/?  They will not cover all the dates but you can see if parish boundaries changed.

Can you tell us the road name in later censuses?

ADDED: Hmmm that area hasn't yet been scanned by nls. Try https://www.old-maps.co.uk/#/

Might be worth searching for neighbours as they might have stayed put, do you have a name of who was living there in say 1871(not 61)   as having trouble finding reference.

It might be worth looking at FindMyPast's address search rather than the Ancestry one as A's is a bit cloggy!
The missing 1861 one might well be because the page/folio is missing. Quite a large part of the 1861 is missing/destroyed.

Is it Abel Edwin Jones living at Cragian? in 1911
Looking at neighbours and house names is this possible for the 1901?
Easier to give you a name to look up on that page which includes nearby properties mentioned in 1911 including Cragian
