View Full Version : Anyone with a sub help me with 1861 census?
I have the reference from familysearch: RG09 Piece/Folio 1024 / 133 p5
My gt x 3 grandfather Daniel Moore age 75 carpenter is down as an inmate. Can someone kindly tell me what is the name of the institution?
I read the description of the enumeration district but it doesn't seem to mention anything that sounds like an institution other than a Roman Catholic school, so I'm at a bit of a loss at the moment.
Thanks for looking anyway, Merry.
The parish is St Andrew the Less in Cambridge, so I suppose if you look here:
www.workhouses.org.uk/Cambridge/
....it's probably the workhouse of that parish.

Browsing backwards from the page with Daniel Moore on, you get to William Thomas Bourds(?), Master of Workhouse.
Thanks Kite, I thought it might be the workhouse. That or a lunatic asylum!
