Here in Canada at our local library, they hold phone directories for every year that we can go through to search by name or street. Very great resource. I am wondering if there is any way of looking at a certain address over a 10 year span to see if the same family remains there. The address is 58 Bailey Street (Park), Sheffield. Time frame 1875 - 1885. I see the family in the 1881 census but wanted to know if they were there prior to 1881 and after the census. Thank you kindly.
Directories are on this site for certain periods. Scroll down on the left hand side.
Archives and local studies have a range of street directories & Electoral registers but not everyone appeared in them according to their status.

Fir vale Work house wasn't built until 1878 onwards so took in 'residents' from around 1880.If I come across anything I will let you know.

Hi Dawn,

The 1878 court report says her sister lived in the Park but their parents lived in Bailey Street (which is not in the Park).
I note that in 1881 six of the family are called 'BARKER' but, on turning a page, the two youngest are 'PARKER':slightly_smiling_face:
