    3. Hi Kerri I can't see John and Sarah in Sawtrey in 1841, but one of the districts which makes up Sawtrey is of pretty poor quality so is difficult to make out names. Could you post the names and birth years of the children so I have a second chance of finding them, and also what the address was in Sawtrey in 1851 where John and Sarah were found? The more information you give the better the chances of getting a result. Names I have found Sawtrey St Andrew John Sissman 20 farmer Sarah Sissman 25 Both born in Hunts (definitely 20 and 25 so unless the enumerator made an error not the older John and Sarah) (the first s of the double s in Sissman is written in the style of the times, like a modern day f - I imagine this is what you have regarding the marriage and it's been mistranscribed as an f) Thomas Hitchcock 35 shoe maker b in Hunts Elizabeth Hitchcock 40 Not b in Hunts David Sissman 15 Shoe makers apprentice b in Hunts North Rd Lodge Sawtrey St Judith Thomas Sisman 25 ag lan b in Hunts Martha Sisman 25 milliner b Hunts Archers Wood lodge Sawtrey St Judith Eliza Caynor 25 William Caynor 6 William Sisman 9 All born in Hunts Sawtrey Green, St Judith William Sisman 45 ag lab Esther Sisman 40 John Sisman 20 ag lab William Sisman 15 ag lab Mary Sisman 12 George Sisman 9 All b in Hunts Sawtrey All Saints Entry ruled through Thomas Sisman 23 ag lab Sarah Sisman 22 Both b in Hun ts Benjamin Sisman?18 ruled through replaced by 15 Shoe maker b in Hunts Ages over 15 in 1841 should have been rounded down to the nearest 5 below - hence presumably the enumerator's amendment to Benjamin's age.
