Find Ancestors

If anyone would like a look up on the 1851 census for Norfolk, Warwickshire or Devon, please post here, or send me a message. Please add as much information as possible, even if it's only rough info, every little helps! Nicola

Hi Nicola, Sheila Roberts did a check for me earlier for a family called HARROLD in Weasenham All Saints, Norfolk, I was also looking for ASKEWs. Sheila said that there were some ASKEWs in nearby Litchem but I'm afraid I have no details on any first names or ages or anything. I'm trying to find an ASKEW who married a Sarah HARROLD c1864 and ended up living in Weasenham All Saints. Unfortunately by the 1881 census he had died and so far I haven't been able to trace him. If it's too much of a long shot I understand. Many Thanks. Paul

Hi Paul, I wasn't quite sure what you wanted me to look up, so i looked up Sarah Harrold and then the Askews in Litcham, if this isn't what you wanted, let me know and i'll do another lok up!
