Hi Ivy, Sorry, this isn`t the one that is required.. The James that is being looked for, was born Rhodes, and was married and in London on the 61 census, and I believe he has the family on later returns. It is the 41 and 51 records that David has been unable to find - but even then, they may not be in this area. I did suggest for David to search St Leonards for a start (which haven`t yet been indexed for the 1830s). Doreen. -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.
