Census records are
valuable: not only do they allow researchers to see where
our ancestors lived but they allow us to see who
lived in certain properties, how old they were at the
time of the census documentation and the associated
people who were residing in the dwelling at the time. They are extremly useful
to assist us compiling a family tree and also help us
to understand or appreciate what Lyneham village was
like at the time.
We have extracted some records which
show the prime traders and principle building occupiers.
If you need to expand your search the Ancestry website
has all the detail available. Earlier census records
are a little vague, to clearly identify who lived in
which property, but we have listed what we can accurately
see for you.
