Find Ancestors

Please state exactly what you are looking for (i.e if a census look up state which county & year) & post your request to this thread rather than sending me a direct message.

Hi Nikki Do you have a name Index for the 1851 Census Somerset. I dont know much about this man. I am looking for some information about a George Carter. All I know going off his son's marriage that he was a Shopkeeper. Henry Edward Coulson Carter his son always states as born Bristol Somerset. Although I can find no record of a Birth for HEC Carter around 1818 going off Census Returns If it's Too much of an ask don't worry about it. An Elusive Ancestor Hunter. Maureen

Hello Maureen Each town or area is indexed but you do have to search them individually - it's a real pain - there are 700 documents to search for Somerset alone! The only George Carter I could find in Bristol itself is shown below. Could this be the son of George you are looking for?

Hi Nikki No I dont think that he would tie in as Henry was born C 1818 and this George being only 32 in 1851 would make him more the age of a brother rather than a Father. Thankyou for having a look for me Maureen Much Appreciated

Hi June This is the best match I could find...

Hi Nikki, Your kind offer is much appreciated. Would you please see if you can find Edward Randall who was born circa 1786 in Wiltshire for me. The 1851 census has him as being born in Fisherton Anger but other records say Salisbury. He died in 1858 in Britford, Alderbury aged 65 years. His wife was Rhoda Cooper born 1791 supposedly in Salisbury. Any information whatsoever would be very welcome as I have come to the end of the records that are available here in Brisbane. Many thanks, June.

Hi Nikki Please could you do a lookup on the 1861 census for me? I am trying to find Sarah Hatfield. She was born in 1846 in Preston Gubbals, near Shrewsbury, Shropshire. Her family were living in Staffordshire but Sarah was not in their household on census night, may have been in service somewhere. Would really appreciate this. Ann

Nikki, Thank you for the kind offer.May i please have a look up on 1861 Census for Arthur Hall,born about 1853,Surrey.Parents were James/Elisabeth,who were born in Suffolk.Had a sister Ellen born about 1846,also in Surrey. Thelma.

Hi Nikki I would very much appreciate a look up for Henry Thomas/Thomas Henry Preen born 1818 in the 1851 census for Gloucestershire/Bristol. I have him in the 1841 living in Kings Stanley Glos which is also where he was christened, and the 1861 in Horfield near Bristol. In 1861 they have a 12 year old who was born Westbury on trym so maybe they are there in 1851. 1841 Thomas Henry Preen Born Glos age 20 Labourer Ann Preen born Glos age 20 Harriet Preen born Glos age 1 living Picked Elm Kings Stanley 1861 Henry Preen Head M 43 Ag Lab Stanley Ann Preen Wife M 42 Hempstead Harriett Preen Daur 21 Servant ?

Hi Dorothy No luck so far looking for Sarah - do you have her on any other census returns? Nikki

Thelma Do we know where in Surrey Arthur was born or where in Suffolk his parents were born? Do you have them on any other census's? Nikki

Hi Julie Can't find your Preen family I'm afraid - it may be the case that they have been mis-transcribed but as I don't have the census images for Bristol or Glos. I have no way of finding out. Sorry! Nikki
