Hello Karen, thankyou for the offer. Could you find CAROLINE PRIEST, born about 1836 in HURST, BERKS. Also her father THOMAS PRIEST, occupation - tailor. Many thanks, Wendy

Hiya Wendy I found a Caroline Priest, but theres no Thomas in the family :- Ho107/28b S&N cd pg 4 - Wokingham, Sonning Priest John 55 Priest John 30 Priest Ann 25 Priest William 15 Priest Caroline 5 Priest George 4 Priest Mary 2 Karen

Hi Elizabeth Sorry no sign of any Croxson's. It could be that the surname has been spelt wrong on the census. I've tried several variations but had no luck. Sorry i couldnt help. Karen

Hello Karen, Thanks for your kind offer. Please could you look for Francis and Sarah Shepherd, who should be living in Reading, probably St. Mary's parish. Many thanks Regards Barbara

Hiya Barbara I think this is your family :- HO107/23b S&N cd pg 33 - Wallingford, Moreton Shepherd Francis 40 Shepherd Sarah 20 Shepherd Joseph 15 Shepherd Lawra 14 Shepherd Eliza 12 Shepherd Francis 10 Shepherd Herbert 9 Karen

Thanks Karen, this is interesting to me as I had Mary as a cousin to Caroline in 61 census, so it gives me something to look into, perhaps she was staying with the other Priest family, I shall have to get sight of actual 41 census to establish her relationship to head of household. Thanks again, Wendy

Hi Karen, Thank you so much. Now I know how Francis and Sarah's daughter came to meet her husband in the next village Brightwell, I thought they would have been in Reading! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Kind regards Barbara

Hello Karen, could you please have a look for me for Mary Ann Forster born 1831 Sutton Courtenay,Berkshire. Many thanks Jenny

Hi again Karen, If you have a spare five minutes could you possibly look for two more members of my Sheppard family, Olive aged about 8 and Thomas aged about 12 as they are missing from the family in Wallingford. Would be grateful to know their whereabouts. Many thanks. Barbara

Hiya Jenny Sorry no sign of your Mary. Sorry I couldnt help. Karen

Hiya Barbara Sorry no sign of Thomas or Olive. Karen

Please can you look up Richard Goddard born 1769 wife Catherine in Brimpton also Thomas Brooker wife Mary married 1797 Cookham. Thanks Ann.

Hi Karen, Thank you very much for looking, wonder where they were then! Kind regards Barbara

Hi Karen, thanks for taking the time to look for my Mary, think they must have moved to London by then maybe as she married there in St Pancras 1852. Best wishes Jenny
