Hi everyone, I am looking for George WEST from TADLEY. I have him in 1901, 1891, 1881 and 1871 census records. It gets difficult to locate him any earlier at present. He was born about 1849 or 1850. From his first marriage to Mary Ann HERBERT in 1867 his father is David WEST he is given as of age! In his second marriage in 1877 to Emily SALMON his father is given as Daniel WEST. I cannot with any certainty locate him in the 1861 census in Tadley or elsewhere. All the later census records show him around the Lambeth, Norwood and Croydon areas. If someone could locate him in the 1851 census, hopfully still in the Tadley area aged about 1 or 2 with a father of Daniel or David, it could help clear up a problem with the 1861 census. Barry.
Good Day, My Great-great grandfather William HELLYER (b. 1829) was a good friend of the WESTs: ..1891 Rate Book showed that a Daniel West (owned or paid rates) No. 51 Clarence Parade. The Wests were good friends of the Hellyers. Alderman Daniel WEST was a member of Portsmouth Council and very much involved in the development of Southsea. He was not a particularly prominent member but was "one of the most genial". He died in 1897. Source History of Portsmouth by W GATES. This might be a connection...
