Put the names up on here, and see if anyone can tace them


as Jacqueline said, there are loads of mistranscriptions, and mis-spellings on the actual census .... often the more information you put in, the fewer results you get.

Enhglish husband and wife have three children between 1843 and 1849 in Shoreditch.

We've got their marriage cert and the birth certs for three children. BUT, none of the five is found in 1851 census. In fact husband and wife are never seen again and it is 1881 before we are confident that the children have turned up as adults. leading normal-ish North London lives. Curious that they all turn up around the same time, eh?

Any suggestions on where to search othet than BD&M and English census records. please?
