Part of Dublin?
« on: Sunday 01 October 23 20:21 BST (UK) »
Would anyone like to hazard a guess as to the word after 'Dublin'? This is from the 1911 census and is given as Place of Birth.
Thanks,
Chris.

Resident?
I thought that to start with, but it doesn't make sense. The person in question moved from Ireland many years prior to the 1911 census and was living in Chepstow at the time. I was wondering if the first letter is 'V' and not 'R'.

It is Resident.
If you look at the column heading there are instructions.
‘In the case of persons born elsewhere, state whether “Resident” or “Visitor” in this country’.

Thank you. Yes, I see that now. I should have looked more carefully  ::)
