Find Ancestors

I have copied, pasted and printed all this out and will study it all tomorrow as its early morning here in Oz, hope i can sleep i`m so excited Sylvia

Thank you again , you know i must remember to look for page 2 here instead of just refreshing

I have been searching the 1841 census,looking for the children as well as the parents, but I can't find another family which seems to fit. The trouble is the head of this family is clearly written as James, so I am sorry, but I just don't know what the answer is.Perhaps someone else can have a look at the 1841 and see if they can find a different family for you. Linda

I have looked at the 1871 image and it is a girl and should be Jane H, the person who transcribed the image has made a mistake. I may not have the correct family in 1841, but the children seem to fit, i don't know who James is, I will have another look

Thank you so much Linda, you have me dancing for joy here

Ican see a James in 1871 but as a daughter?????????????

The 1861 image is hard to read, but the one mistranscibed as Francelia is age 70 and the head of the house, his wife Elizabeth is only 50. He must be the Francis of the 1851 census. So you have this branch of your family back to 1841 now, that should give you a good start. glad to help Linda

who was James i cant see him on the other census

1841 Walker Lane Court Derby James 50 (so means 50 to 54) shoemaker Elizabeth 35 (so 35 to 39) Elizabeth 15 Frederick,13 Andrew 8 Hannah 5 Emma 3 John 2

Could that Fancelia be a father as birth is 1790,i mean father of my ggandfather
