That definitely reads Selina Jane----------- James Boyce boarder magnified to 125% they are your people

1891 - have a look at image - I think name should read Jutsum - not Elsom Unfortunately the James Bayee looks like James Bayes - but I wondered if this could be your James prior to his marriage to Selina (see below) - age and place of birth fit - maybe name misheard by enumerator (may be not!!)

Linda - can we help ?

Have just tried to find my elusive Gt Grandfather on 1837, all I keep getting is 'your search has taken too long and has therefore stopped'. Fed up Linda

I find it is often easier to search for an 1841 transcription on British Origins (providing the county has been covered of course) than it is on Ancestry. Just a slightly different type of search format.

Hi Heather Well it's certainly worth a try - 1837online has a different transcription and a different filming of the census to that on Ancestry, so you never know, you may get lucky! Cheers, Richard

I just read a thread on records where someone couldnt find a family on the 1891. Someone else kindly replied giving a reference for the page taken from the 1837online info. Now am I being a thicko here, but does that mean peeps we cant find on ancestry COULD be found on 1837?
