Pigot's Directory of Essex 1823 - list of inhabitants.

Part 1. Continue Part 2

If you wish to trace any of these people on the census returns, the nearest census date for this 1823 directory is the 1841 census. There are a number of commercial providers of census returns. These include:

• ancestry.co.uk
• genesreunited.co.uk
• findmypast.co.uk

Note: the directory lists the names in the following order: Surname, First Name. It also abbreviates names. These have been reversed and typed in full to assist research.

My ancestor lived here at this time, but why aren't they listed here? Answer: Not everyone appeared in a trade directory. Please read our Trade Directories article
