    1. [ENG-CAMS] Help with the EASY/NELSON family
    2. Hi I am still searching for my elusive Nelson ancestors and I found my great x 3 grandmother, Biddy Hagger (formerly Nelson, nee Brown) in Croydon cum Clopton. In the 1841 census it says she was born in Ireland as does the Speculum Gregis. In the same census she has with her a Margret Easy age 25, Eliza Easy age 4, and Alfred Easy age 2. Margret and Eliza according to that source were both born in Ireland, Alfred in Croydon. On the IGI there are births for both Alfred and Eliza but no place given (private submissions)- the father is listed as John Easy and the mother as Margaret Dinah Nelson. So, to make a long winded story a bit shorter, I think that Margaret may hold some family clues (she may have been Biddy's daughter or a sister in law) - but I have been unable to find her or her children in any subsequent census records. She may have remarried or returned to Ireland but I thought I would start with the very kind people on this board and see if they have come across that family. Thanks in advance for any help.
