I've had a good look too but alas I can't find the family!

It is so unfortunate that we can only find Henry in the 1841 census as all that tells us is that he was not born in the County; which is about as useful as a hole in the head! With no other information I think it is going to be impossible to find out with any certainty where Henry was born....sorry!

No sign 1851 though, or is it me? Just wanted to be satisfied there is no Henry there!

The only other thing is the accuracy of his death. Can anyone find Emma in 1851?

Well, it does look pretty accurate given the census and marriage. I wonder if you might be able to access the parish record for the marriage to see if his father is named?

Gillian - I have a corresponding marriage record to the one Londonbelle has posted. On that, both the groom and brides ages are given as 21 with a birth year of 1809. Now that may well be becasue they were considered of "full age" and 21 was assumed.
For the sake of accuracy, where did you get the birth years of 1804?
