1911 census - rest of street missing - why?

[mnahmnah]

Hi

I looked up my address on the 1921 census no problem and it was really surprising and interesting. Went back to the 1911 census and it doesn’t appear. I have the original deeds from 1906, the street has the same name, house is the same number as now. On the 1911 census, the houses stop at 75. My house is 90 and it goes up to 102.

Does anyone know why a whole section of street would be missed off the 1911 census, despite definitely being built and under the same name and numbers? Thanks!

Could it have fallen into a different enumeration district? If you look on the 1911 census on Ancestry and click the back arrow on the left you can click back to the start of the "book" and it will describe the district covered.

It's unusual to have one street cut in two, but it happens. Is 75 the last one before a junction or something?

It’s a straight terraced street, so i can’t imagine they would change the record part way along it. All the details on the 1906 deeds match our details now - district, street name and number, post code. Just any houses from 75-100 are missing

There is a junction, but at 82. Which doesn’t add up and the ones opposite ours are on the census

How do you view Census records? My house was built in 1903 and I would love to know its history.

Find my past or Ancestry websites. You can get basic information then pay a small amount for the more detailed record

I’ve had that before too. Think it turned out to be different districts - the odd numbers were one district and the even numbers were a separate district, or another set just stopped on one side of the road but continued on the other.

Did you find it in the 1939 records?

When I type in the street, it only says there is one record, so not one for another district

If its Find My Past, I have reported loads of transcription errors
Can't find my grandmother or her family on it by name and I don't have their address for that year. The street they lived in later isn't fully transcribed for 1911 though, so can't search on a known address either.

Have you looked at the enumerator's summaries for that area and the surrounding areas? There's often a good description of what's covered in each area and what isn't (so may give a road name and "all the west side" or "nos 117 to 85 odd").

(so that, while the street address details may not have been transcribed correctly, if you can locate the right bit of the street in the enumerator's summary you can figure out where to look)

Have you looked in both Ancestry and FMP? It might be the records appear in one and not the other.

Some census records have been lost - some are listed here:
discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/results/r?_q=missing+census+&_sd=1911&_ed=1911&_hb=

You could look at a street directory for 1911 to see who is living there.

Take a note of neighbour's names in 1921 from missing houses and then search for them in 1911 and hope they're still there!
