I have the birth cert of Craven Eglin in 1858 born in Accrington but cannot find him or family on the 1861. They are living at the same address on the 1871 as the birth cert in 1858.
How can I find the 1861 family ?
Many thanks Joan

Who are the parents?

Hi Sue and angela.
The address is 103 Wellington Street, Accrington Lancashire. Parents are Adam and Susannah.
Some of the family were living at no. 99 at one point too.
I have looked for all the siblings but can't find any of them.
Cheers

Hi Still Looking
That is the correct family.
Mother Susannah has died and there is a daughter Susana b 1861.
Do you think they were all at the hospital visiting when the emumerator called !

BVRI also has the marrige of 5 or 6 children of Adam in Accrington. Are you interested or do you already have them?

I think they would still have had to enter names even if at the Hospital?

..but....way back then, not many people died in Hospitals!

No NHS

Hi Margaret, Thank you. Yes I have that cert. Craven must have lied about his age.
At the time of the marriage Craven was living at 99 Wellington Street.

Margaret I would be very interested.
I have found throught this family search that both sides of my family Mum's and dad's that they both originate from this CRAVEN Eglin and his two marriages.
A night mare to put on this GR tree and to unravel !
Thank you, Joan

Sorry....can't help on address search.

1861 is only showing up to no. 78.

1871 has 76 results for Wellington Street Accrington but unfortunately no house numbers.

Margaret Thank you so much. I recognise the eglin names and wil save the info.

Sue , Thanks for looking, Is there a folio number for the 1861 Wellington St results ? I am willing and able to trawl for it.

Thanks

Gerri,
Mother Susannah must have died between 1961 Susana jr birth and the 1871 census.

Joan Report 2 Dec 2007 20:03

Margaret, the birth and christening you found is Adam b 1849 and his wife Margarets child.
Adam b 1840 and craven b 1858 are brothers.
Both Adam and Craven are family names passed down,
