Valuable resources, Mel. These will tie in well with the Census Project. Things are tricky with that at the moment. Matching 1891 locations and residents to 1881 ones is haaaard! |

Partly because road 'names' change a lot between '81 and '91, and also partly because an awful lot of people seem to move house between the two years. |

Mine seemed to move house a lot in Briercliffe from one census to the next. I wonder if the house owner was also the employer of the weavers-----Roger would probably be able to answer that one. |
