Can you send me one? When it comes time to publish I would like to have a few illustrations.<br /><br />If you tell me your house number--privately--I can look it up in the city directories and see it the owner or resident was also in the census. But it is amazing just how sparsely populated this area was in 1861. It was just being settled so there were a lot of spaces between the houses.Old Census Scribehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03292318972627916311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5665451864415796762.post-74345508678218508732009-07-03T19:39:57.560-04:002009-07-03T19:39:57.560-04:00Hello

I am trying to discover the history of the house which appears to have been built in the 1850's so 20 to 30 years older than the other victorian houses in the immediate area. I cannot find any information that goes that far back. If you can be of help I would love to speak to you. thank you. dlevin@trebnet.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5665451864415796762.post-82519958110076314622009-01-24T03:12:00.000-05:002009-01-24T03:12:00.000-05:00Hi,Congrats on tackling such a major undertaking. ...Hi,<BR/><BR/>Congrats on tackling such a major undertaking. I've worked on transcribing early census returns for Aberdeen city and county and know how cross-eyed it can make you after a while. If ever you come across any DUFFUS families in Toronto they will be part of my tree & I would be interested to hear of them.
