Not gypsy in the usual sense of the name, but having tracked my 3x Great-Grandfather through the Census collection so far he seems to be one!! I'd like to pin down where he was in 1841? Details as follows:- Richard (or possibly Robert) Huntsworth born c1819 in Caverswall, Staffordshire. I have his marriage in 1843 in Manchester so he might be round that area. Gives his occupation as a 'Tailor' on Marriage Certificate. Also trying to find William Bennett - a 'School Master' in 1841. Have no idea of year/or place of birth. and finally Elizabeth Sarah Bennett (daughter of William above) born c1820 in Macclesfield, Cheshire. Read somewhere that most of Lancashire for 1841 Census is missing. I live in hope!!! Thanks Joy |
