Hi Val, Found a Backshell family living in Saint Mary's street in 1841 William Backshell 55 Grocer,Elizabeth Backshell 45 Joan??? Price Backshell 15 and Samuel Price Backshell 13. They are all born in parish. Don't forget the ages are pretty vague in this census. Sorry couldn't read the daughter's name very well Regards Geraldine -----Original Message----- From: Lomax, Val [mailto:VLomax@psw.coop] Sent: 09 May 2005 09:51 To: ENG-HAM-PORTSMOUTH-GOSPORT-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [PORTSMOUTH-GOSPORT] 1841 Census I'm not sure whether anyone has access to the 1841 Census, or whether it has been indexed, but would SKS be able to look up my BACKSHELL family for me, they were living in Wish Street , Portsea/Southsea, or possibly in Queen Street or St Mary Street Portsmouth.
