I am trying to find this street on the 1901 or 1911 census but can't! Does anyone know if it was named differently in 1901/1911? Thanks

Thank you - I was spelling it with a double r - such a basic error on my part at this stage! Thanks very much.

Been there, done that - and some of the census addresses are not spelled the way you'd expect either!

The browse function is very useful if you know what area somewhere will be listed in.

I lived there and everyone used two Rs. The street sign has two Rs. There's only one R on old OS maps though. I wonder when it changed.

I lived on this street between age 0-4!

Now I see that they actually use Glengariff Parade as an example in how to use the location search!
