Hi Andrea thanks great could you lookup for me please George Brittain b.c1837 on IGI many thanks Clive.

This is Robert and Mary in 1841 Richard Crook Age: 38 Estimated Birth Year: abt 1803 Gender: Male Where born: Bedfordshire, England Civil Parish: Potton Hundred: Biggleswade County/Island: Bedfordshire Country: England Registration district: Biggleswade Sub-registration district: Potton Neighbors: View others on page Household Members: Name Age Catherine Crook 13 Edith Crook 11 Eleanor Crook 18 age given as 8 Jessee Crook 6 Mary Crook 40 Richard Crook 38 Robert Crook 15 Thomas Crook 9 Mo (a girl Thamer) William Crook 10 Source Citation: Class: HO107; Piece 2; Book: 23; Civil Parish: Potton; County: Bedfordshire; Enumeration District: 18; Folio: 23; Page: 40; Line: 17; GSU roll: 241190. I think that Eleanor should be down as Eliza going on the baptism. You can look at the IGI for free on www*familysearch*org (replace * by full stop) On first page click on the Search tab -at the top of the page and then on International Genealogical Index on the side.

Hi Andrea Thank you for the details the family you have posted on message looks to be a different one to all the details up to then posted. Could you clarify this with the other details on this board, I have visited IGI to find my gggfather to see his baptisem found it thanks. Kind regards Clive.

To be certain that you have the correct family in the various censuses, you will need to check Eliza's father's details on the marriage cert Reg

The 1841 family (mistranscribed) was the one that tied in with the baptism of Eliza Croot in 1833 which I had posted earlier. If that is not your Eliza then just ignore the family.
