You've also been given him in 1871 so is it the other 3 you are looking for or just 1841?

how about this one?

1841 census - household transcription
Person: WOOFFENDINE, Joseph
Address: Dirtcar, Sandal, Magna, Crigglestone



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

CONACHER, Adam M 35 1806 Scotland VIEW
ATACK, Frances F 20 1821 Yorkshire VIEW
WOOFFENDINE, Joseph M 20 1821 Yorkshire>>>Ag Lab
ARMITAGE, George M 13 1828 Yorkshire VIEW

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


They tended to round the ages down to nearest 5 in 1841

I am sure you can search on Find my past for free so it may be worth signing up so you can do wild card searches to find out the transcribed spelling then come back and find it on GR

I found that one by just entering Joseph Wooff*
If GR does not give this option it could take forever to find anything

Nothing much

Mike - He posted that he had found Joseph in 1881 & 1891, and you say he had been given 1871.

We've found 1841 as requested. How about 1851 or is that buried in the thread?

The Ancestry 1841 has been transcribed differently but you will find him on GR using the census I posted from FMP
