Hi Nikki Re Sarah Hatfield born 1846 Preston Gubbals, Shropshire I only need 1861. On the earlier censuses she is with her parents, 1851 at 61 Moxley, Wednesbury, Staffs. She married John Careless in 1864 in Willenhall, Staffs, then lived in Darlaston, Staffs until she died. She was not with her parents in 1861, they were at Dudley Street or Darlaston road, Wednesbury then. Census is hard to read for address. I suppose it is possible that whoever she was living with put her birthplace down as Moxley, Wednesbury or Darlaston? Good Luck! Ann

Hi Nikki Wondered if you'd mind looking to see if you can find part of my Robins family in Holcombe, Somerset. Name is also spelt Robbins. William Robins b c.1786 Maria Robins b c. 1786 Silas Robins b 1814 - 1816 Emma Robins b c.1828 Maria Robins b c.1830 All are in Holcombe on 1841 - trying to find out if the two daughters and father are still alive in 1851, as they do not appear on 1861. If so, this would narrow down my search for deaths/marriages, which is proving expensive! Any help will be much appreciated.

Hi Nikki, I wonder if you could have a look on the 1851 for Robert Spring aged 45 - Tailor born Canterbury, Kent and his wife Suan aged 42 born Dorchester, Dorset and any children they may have with them. Regards Shona

Thanks Nikki No don't know who parents were but working on it! Thanks for the info, will follow up these lines. Kathryn

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

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 ?

Thankyou very much Julie

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 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

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

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
