— 1861 Census, Sunday 07 April 1861

Question

Given the low number of occupants on the 1841 and 1851 censuses when compared with the 1861, had the building been reworked between 1851 and 1861, or were they packing ‘em in because of the infrastructure work on Hilsea Lines?

Question

Is this the John Smith who nicked the bacon a year later?
