Hi there:

All well and good, but how do you translate those numbers into a search on
Ancestry? I got as far as it being in Burnley, but after that I think I got
lost!

Hi Pet,

You need the numbers when you look up a specific image on Ancestry (or
another online site that has the censuses).

RG09 stands for 1861

3067 is the Piece number

The number of the enumeration district is 13

The Folio number is 29

The Page number is 6

The schedule number is 24

This was in Burnley in Lancashire.

Petra
(pleased to find someone with a similar name!)
