I wonder if anyone has access to the 1861 for the Sheffield area please? I am looking for a Ellen Louisa Yates who'd have been about 13 in 1861. She was a British subject but born in Cadiz in1848. Her father was a Benjamin Yates (engineer) and her mother was ? Spanish (no name known). All I know is that in 1866 Ellen married in Sheffield so I'm hoping that 5 years earlier she was already in that area. I'm trying to do this bit of research for a friend who's frightened of computers so I offered to do a bit of digging for her but it's not proving easy! Any light on this would be appreciated. Very best wishes Sue
