master brummie
I am hoping to search through the 1861 census to look for a specific street and its occupants. Does anyone know how in what area from below, on the census the 2 streets would be covered please?

Watery Lane (Birmingham) and High Street (Aston)

1861 Birmingham
St Thomas, St Paul, St Peter, St Mary, St George, Lady Wood, St Philip, All Saints and St Martin.

1861 Aston
Duddeston, Erdington and Deritend

Thank you for any help.

Hi again,Aston,Erdington will probably cover High Street,Aston.District 11 covers Park Lane and Thomas Street,which isn't that far away.It's just a matter of trawling through the description of the enumeration districts!(I think!)
 
Thank you ladylinda

I have made a note of those districts you have mentioned, I know it is going to be tough trawling through the districts but it is the case sometimes when looking for ancestors isn't it.

Thanks again for your interest and help.
