Hi would anyone be prepared to have a look at an image for me if I email it to you - I am trying to decipher the street name on a 1891 census page. Any help gratefully received. Trudy

Thanks girls, details below - I offered to email it after Sammy's thread a few days ago, moaning about people asking other people to spend money for them instead of doing it themselves - I forgot there are people on here who will help for the sake of it. Info is as follows: 1891 Census Source information: RG12/259 Registration district: Bethnal Green Sub registration district: Bethnal Green North ED, institution, or vessel: 12a Folio: 30 Page: 54 (click to see others on page) I am looking for the street name, it looks like 'elvin' to me, but I can't find that on a map of the period, so any help gratefully received.
