Film HO107/2314, Enumeration District 3, Folio 200

The above is the census for Wortley, Leeds.

I was looking at a transcribed copy which shows an Elizabeth Peace aged 4 who is of interest to me. However, no other family is mentioned.

If anyone has access to the original, please could you look and see if any other Peace's are found on this record.

Thanks,
Andy

Hmmmm, thank you all. I'm interested in all Peace's from Wortley and it is interesting to find this little girl by her self. I don't recognise and Claytons' from my tree, but I'll have to keep a closer eye now to see who this girl's parents were and what happened to them.
