I am enjoying learning to use the 1911 census with my findmypast
subscription
have any of you guys made brilliant discoveries?
I still have not found the Tower of London - which functioned as an
army barracks in those days

H M KING GEORGE, King George St George
RG14PN464 RD5 SD2 ED35 SN1
H M QUEEN MARY, Queen Mary


H M KING GEORGE is indexed as a last name

and takes you straight to:-

1911 Census
H M KING GEORGE, King George
ST GEORGE, London
Reference RG14PN464 RD5 SD2 ED35 SN1
and the first page of Buckingham Palace



but the Tower of London still defeats me
