Thread: 1871 Census (London) John Oliphant Armit

Hi everyone



Could someone look up the 1871 Census for 'London' please!



In my records I have this entry from an old diary:

"28 April 1871, John O. Armit is yet with W. Bird 42 Castle St. Oxford St. W. London."



John was born in Westray Parish, Orkney, on 4 Feb 1846 so he would have been aged 25. The Parish may be shown as 'Westray and Papa Westray'.



My fingers are crossed (yet again)



Regards

Thanks again Slizzy



That's the very man and many thanks for your speedy response



John left Mr Birds, Chemist, and ldeparted from Plymouth on 23 Sept 1871 on board the S.S. 'Severn' bound for Quebec and Montreal then to go to Fort Garry, Red River, North America. He died in Fort Frances, Ontario, Canada in 1919.
