This is a bit of a mystery for our family. I have been able to trace my mother's paternal relations back to John Dooley once he is living in England. However, on the English census's (or is that censi ?), it is marked he was born in France. Very strange as the English weren't particularly liked at that time. Perhaps his father was Irish ? No idea of his mother's origins. Perhaps French. |

wasn't there a bit of a break in the Napoleanic Wars at that point, and the Brits flocked over there |

Just to set your mind at rest, I was told by somebody who knew latin that the plural of census is censuses because it wasn't the right type of noun to be converted to censi. Don't ask me why, I just bow to the scholars. |
