Member Since: March 2003 Posts: 33 Send Message	I'm trying to find a relative, John George Scott b1872 (actually 11.12.1871 but registered 1872). Tried the 1881 census but no luck on JohnGeorge so tried just John Scott. 4149 matches but the page search freezes at page 151 where the age is about 37 and I'm trying to find a boy of 9 ! Can't find any useful way to narrow the search. What I'd really like to do is find the marriage of his parents JohnScott and Charlotte Smith who lived at 31 Portland St when JG was born. Any advice on how to progress as I'm running out of ideas :-(
