Hi there, Does any one have access to pre 1881 census for Lancashire? If so, could you please look for the following people: William Aspinall born 1851 Manchester (son of John) James Henry Aspinall born 1850 Manchester (son of John) John Aspinall born 1820 in Bolton le moors a carter Ann Aspinall born 1823 Haslingden Thank you very much, Karen

I have an 1841 for Lancs, but it's not indexed ... do you have any idea where John and Ann may have been living? As far as I know there is no other Lancashire census available in full ... if you know of one please let me know as I NEED IT!! Also have access to 1891 if you need any lookups.

This site may help. http://www(.)lancashirebmd(.)org.uk/

Hi everyone, Thanks for the info. Lesley, I don't know where John was living, just that he was born c1820 in Bolton le moors i think. Seems like his children were born in Manchester . On WWW.lancslist.com there are people who have access to 1861 census but there again it's not indexed and it may take awhile before they find anyone. Haven't had any luck on information for 1851, 61 or 71 census and i'm a bit stuck without it! I'll keep trying though, Thanks again, Karen

Sorry, Guys ... bit of a cock up ... my 1841 is for a specific area of Lancs not the whole of it (no wonder I can't find people ...) I may have tracked down the 1861 and will let you know if and when I order it. Sorry once again!

Elton ... first findings from 1891 Administrative County: Yorkshire Civil Parish: Liverton Urban Sanitary District: Lofthouse Town/Village/Hamlet (crossed through): Liverton Mines (?) Parliamentary Borough: Cleveland Parish: St Michaels Living at 2 Graham Street: Isaac Stalker, Head, 57, Ironstone Miner(?), born Ulverstone Esther Stalker, Wife, 56, Born Ireland Robert Stalker, Son, 30, General Labourer, born Ulverstone Maud Ellen, Granddaughter, 10, Scholar, born Yorks, Liverton I know these aren't the ones you specifically mentioned for 1891 but as I found them I thought I'd better let you know given the names you wanted to find in 1841. I'll keep looking for Joseph and Mary ... Oh and I've ordered the 1861. Lesley

Elton ... I've found another Ulverstone Stalker! Administrative County: Yorkshire Civil Parish: Liverton Urban Sanitary District: Lofthouse Town/Village/Hamlet (crossed through): Liverton Mines (?)

Percy Griffiths(?) Stalker, Son, 4, Born Liverton Edward H H Stalker, Son, 2 months(?), Born Liverton Let me know if you want me to e-mail you the pages directly (they'll come as PDF files I think and will be quite large) - didn't want to e-mail them without checking as they'll be attachments and you may have worried about viruses if you got unexpected attachments ... Lesley

Hey Lesley, Where did you find the 1861 census and how much was it....if you don't mind me asking? Is it for the entire Lancs area? Karen

Elton And Finally ... No sign of Mary Ann Stalker born in Yorkshire but found (which I guess is yours given the surname! Administrative County: Yorkshire Civil Parish: Skelton Urban Sanitary District: Skelton Town/Village/Hamlet: Sketon Parliamentary Borough: Cleveland (something written underneath but can't read it) Parish: All Saints Skelton Living at 54 Harker Street: Stephen Rowe, Head, 29, Ironstone Miner(?), Born Loftus Mary A Rowe, Wife, 22, Born Loftus William T Rowe, Son, 5, Born Loftus Florence M Rowe, Daughter, 3, Born Loftus Henry B Rowe, Son, Possibly 2 months (virtually illegible and in wrong column for a male), Born Skelton Hope the above helps, as I say, let me know if you want me to e-mail the actual pages. Welcome to Gods own County! (Lancs that is not Yorks!!) (Although having said that, have recently discovered my first non Lancs relative ... my gt gt grandfather from ... you've guessed it - Yorkshire!
