Could you please give me the full 1861 census result for William and Susannah Miller/Millen, as i would like the full details and to know who Frederick is

Yes, Ceri, that was a christening date. Some of the records give both birthdate and christening date but most are just christenings.
Usually the christening was within a few months of birth but you can't always rely on that. It can be years later.
I believe that you can still purchase BVRI.
Go to Familysearch.
Click on "Order/Download Products" at top.
Click on "Software & Databases"
Click on "Vital Records Indexes"

Mine shows a price of $20 US. I think it's more expensive in England.
They cover parish records in England, Ireland, Scotland & Wales.

I just noticed that record you sent says that is the date she was christened, would this be her birth date or not necessarily?
Also she was born Herringfleet, Suffolk, could this still be her?
Heres to hoping
Thanks again

Does it state anything on there other than just their names and ages? for example does it state what relation to head of family they all are?etc
Thanks

I am amazed as to where you found her on 1871 census as i could not find her on this census!?
It definately looks like her though, but when i did the search it said there were no Jessie Richmond's at all!
The search site i use is Findmypast do they not have everyone on them or something?
Ceri
Ps i just did another search but for the Dennis Chapman you have on the 1871 census and still couldn't find the record! i must be doing something wrong obviously!
