Maiden name of Elizabeth is perry
I have tried looking for other people who may be researching this family but no luck.
Would love to find Henry in the 1861 census
or even with family 1851 1841 , but johnson is so common a name. which direction to go.. He definitely was a miller according to first born cert he was flint miller in 1863 , then in 1871 he changed jobs and became a collier
Thankyou all for replys
