I want to do a lesson about diversity in Victorian England and how there were people here from all over the world.

I want to use some census documents, and have had some success searching by keyword/ place of birth etc, but I wondered if anyone here had any relatives who were foreign nationals or naturalised British subjects, born somewhere else in the world and wouldn’t mind sharing either the link (ancestry) or the folio number etc so I can look them up. The more exotic, the better!

Thanks for looking!

Bit late coming to this, but if you should ever need stuff on diversity in Georgian Britain I had an article published on the subject last year.
