Could some kind person please lookup Edmund [maybe Edward] Roper in the above Census.
He should be residing in Lancashire, Possibly Halliwell or Bolton and have Mary as his Wife. Do not know What children he would have had in 1861 Census but should have 2 Sons, Wright Roper and Edmund Roper in 1871 Census.

Many Thanks Kiwibird <3
