Find Ancestors

Hi Zoe, I am having trouble with William Strickland and his wife Jane. According to the 1881 census they were both born in North Yorkshire about 1840 but the only marriage I have found is in 1866 in Lincolnshire. Please could you look in the 1871 for William, who should be in Lastingham, near Pickering, Yorks. This might throw some fresh light on the family. Many thanks, Frances

Hi Zoe Could you please look up the following family on the 1851/61 Daniel Logan aged abt 60 Head Labourer Annie Logan aged abt 60 Wife Annie Logan aged abt 50 Annie Logan aged abt 29 (if still at home) John Logan aged abt 25 Daniel Logan aged abt 23 l don't know if there were any other children as the above were taken off the 1841 ten years younger. Thanks in advance Kind regards Pam

Hi Zoe, Thank you for your kind offer. I would really appreciate a search for my ancestor in the 1851 census of Hampshire, Sarah LAMBERT, aged about 26, born in Southampton or Ireland. I have found her in the 1841, 1861, 1871, 1881, 1891 and 1901 Census, always in Southampton. She was sometimes Sarah Ann, and was born in Ireland, but sometimes gave her birthplace as Southampton in Hampshire or N[ot] K[nown]. Her indicated birth year fluctuates from 1822 to 1830. Thank you for your time and effort. All the best, Jeff

Jenny where was James born? Could you post the 1871 census info please Zoe

Hey, I was wondering if you could find a Lily Cracknell born in 1891 in Mendlesham, Suffolk on the 1901 census please? I think she was staying with her grandparents at the time. Many Thanks Jo

Florence The census only goes up to 1901 so unless you know her parents ages I have no chance of finding them. The census she would appear in would be the 1911 which has not been released yet!! Sorry I couldn't be more help Zoe x
