I was trying to find out whether Amy's family existed on wheelers yard in 1981 ,Battersea. I've found it hard tracing her family and was wondering if anyone could help as we suspect she was a Romany Gypsy.

If this is any help here are her details
AMY VIOLET LOUISA WHEELER
1911 and believe she died around 1983
Mother: Amy Violet Darvill
Father: William George Wheeler

I'm afraid there is no other way to view the 1921 census. But you don't need a sub. With a free FindMyPast account you can search and view the transcripts and images on a pay per view basis.

Did you really mean 1981 or should it be 1891?  Are you trying to trace her own family, as in descendants, or her ancestors?

I wondered that too, Debra.

Are we looking for the Darvills in 1881?

Here is a bit of history - scroll down to mention of 1911 census, photographs of gypsy communities and a map indicating Wheelers Yard.

JessieKate, here is Amy V Darvill, 5 yrs with parents Thomas and Emily in 1891 79/201

Does this fit with her father on the marriage certificate?
What is the name and occupation of William George Wheeler’s father?

[ShaunJ]

There 8 households in Wheeler's Yard in the 1891 census, all but one in caravans. One caravan is the home of Anthony and Patience Wheeler and their daughter Esther. No other Wheelers there.
