I last put out this thread last year (25-01-05) but with new members joining daily I thought I'd offer this thread once again. I have the Parish Returns for Hackney in 1811 and 1821. Only able to look up head of the house. They only provide first name, surname and address and in some cases how many females and other males were living in the house. With the 1821 Returns my book only goes from A-K. Many thanks. Fern.

Hi Fern, Just checked your previous thread to ensure I hadn't asked before, here goes: I'm looking for the names Archer and Norton in Hackney. I bet they won't be there 'cos I've come to a dead end with this lot but I know they were born Hackney. Thanks Janet

Thanks fot the offer Fern, I'm sure there are look ups I need in the area (whole family from there) but can't think straight at the mo. Thanks for the offer though. Very kind. Suex

Hi Janet, 1811 Archer Benjamin Behind Paradise Row (inmate in house of Isaac Madell) Sawyer Mary Messenger Street Norton Noname Kings Row Mrs Union Street James Alderman Walk (inmate in house of William Potter) John Homerton Street William Cottages in Yard (Newington High Street) Shoemaker William Water Lane Shoemaker 1821 Archer Benjamin Morning Lane Mason Jas. Brooksbys Walk Lab John Back of Weavers Arms Coachman Robert Bird Cage Fields Coachman Not able to find Norton on 1821 as mine copy only goes up to the letter K. I hope this helps. Fern.

Thank you Fern. The Nortons look like distinct possibilities and as for the Robert Archer in 1821, Robert was a popular family name. Just need to prove it all now! Thank you once again Janet

Hi Fern, Could you see if there are any Chamberlains in 1821, especially a Thomas? Thanks Lyla

Hi Fern Please could you see if there are any Knellers in Hackney in 1821. Think the family moved to the area after 1811 so I don't expect there will be any there before 1821. Thank you for offering the look-up. best wishes Lesley
