1841 & 1851 look ups please for Moses Perkes brn abt 1768 and his wife Elizabeth brn abt 1770. Both born in Worcs, and would still be in Worcs for these census's.

In your opinion is this a transcription error, on the family search site I have a William Davis marrying a Mary Pallmore in Worcs 1673. Can find no more Pallmores, so should Pallmore be Palmer? Am off to work now so will check later-Thanks

On BVRI when you type in Pallmore they give you Pallmore, Pallmoore, Pallmor, Palmer, Pallmer in the early years then they all revert to Palmer.

Great grandmother Dorothy Bean nee Abbott (1858-1908)

Lynda.....Did a search right through the 1851 on 1st name only and still couldn`t find Moses Perkes....nearest I got was Moses Parker and Wife Elizabeth in Norfolk, and Moses Pepper..... but presuming the one Blossom found you in 1841 is the correct one, then neither of these can be him as they were also found in same counties in 1841... Are you sure they hadn`t died by 1851? This is the only Moses Perkes Death registered in Worcestshire between 1841 and 1861,.......there is an Elizabeth in the Same Reg. District in 1847 as well.

Many thanks for all the replies and help. Moses and Elizabeth both died in 1852, so they are two more I can add to my "missing on census" list. Again thanks for the help
