Thanks Karen. I have him in him in 1851 and in the later censuses but no-one had been able to find then in 1861 or 1871. I just struck lucky when I was looking on ancestry for birth records and found the rest of the family listed so played around with the with Aaron's name and places near where he was born. Thanks for finding him in 1871 for me. I just need to track them down in 1861 now, the census will reveal it's secrets soon enough. Lunar
