Help with UK 1871 Deaf/Blind/Dumb Census record please?
« on: Wednesday 10 May 23 01:37 BST (UK) »
Hi, Im struggling to read the Deaf, Dumb, Blind, etc, category of this census record, this is the first time I've actually seen this filled in on one of my ancestors census.

However, to me I can not read it, and am also unsure on wether it is just a continuation of the where born category, but I feel like this would have been made evident if so.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Looking at it again, it may be continuation of where born, but second opinions are always good.

I suspect it is a continuation of the previous section, but without seeing more, it is impossible to be certain.
If you gave details such as name, place, date of census, it would be possible for others to view the whole page, and therefore be able to assist more.  :)

Looks like "Bishop Auckland" and "Latham road top" to me.
