January theme for list members: We are going to help you find lost souls in the census. Tell us who disappears in 1871, for example, and our detectives will hunt them down and report their whereabouts.

George was baptized Christmas Eve of 1836 in Metheringham. I am missing census records for 1841 and 1851. An older sister, Mary, was baptized there on 23 Feb 1834. Since their parents were married in 1820, I strongly suspect that there were other children before Mary, and possibly after George. I do not have any of the census records for their father, Thomas Lineham who was baptized in Kirton In Holland on 28 Dec 1795. Thomas and Elizabeth were married in Timberland on 4 July 1820. So those that I am looking for are additional children of Thomas and Elizabeth. Logically there should be additional children. I have seen MANY variations in the spelling of the surname, many of which I have thought impossible, but then the children in the records match up with the records that George's wife wrote down and gave to my grandmother for future reference. I understand that at least part of the time George was referred to as Norris. According to the archives in London the family had been in Lincolnshire since at least the early 1600's. Anything you might find would be welcomed. Patricia

The 1851 census is in the name of LINCHAM, (ref H.O 107/2100) they are living in Fen Side in Blakeney and there is an elder son listed with them William then aged 28 and a farm labourer, his date of birth is given as 1823 so he still might not be the eldest child, strangely Elizabeth's year of birth is given as 1812 and she is listed as aged 39 so this is clearly not correct.  William is also listed as being born in Metheringham. George is listed under the name Norris  and his surname is listed as Siveham and is living away from the family as a servant closer inspection of the records shows that he is also living in Fen Side in the home of farmer James Greenham and is a farm servant. it is the same reference no.   I hope this helps you   Elaine Westaway ________________________________ From: "PJHansen13@aol.com" <PJHansen13@aol.com> To: eng-lincsgen@rootsweb.com Sent: Monday, 2 January 2012, 10:17 Subject: Re: [LIN] Admin. note: January January theme for list members:  We are going to help you find  lost souls in the census.  Tell us who disappears in 1871, for example,  and our detectives will hunt them down and report their whereabouts.  We'll also give you the piece number, the folio and page number so that you  can find them yourselves if you don't believe us.  Remember, we can't  send a copy of the page to the list because attachments aren't  allowed. ======= I would appreciate it very much if someone could find George Norris  Lineham, the son of Thomas and Elizabeth.  George was baptized Christmas  Eve of 1836 in Metheringham.  I am missing census records for 1841 and  1851.  An older sister, Mary, was baptized there on 23 Feb 1834.  Since their parents were married in 1820, I strongly suspect that there were  other children before Mary, and possibly after George.

Patricia, I have sent you a couple of census images direct from Ancestry re a 'Norris Siveham' appearing in Blankey in 1841 and what may be your family group there in 1851 with Thomas perhaps remarried. Thomas's marriage in Timberland in 1820 reveals he was from Blankey at that time. See.... http://www.lincstothepast.com/Records/RecordDisplayTranscript.aspx?oid=532541&iid=213637 .....for his marriage event.

In 1861 census John Parker and his wife Ann live in Osbournby with two children, Elizabeth and Charles. Not one of them come up in 1871. Possibility they emigrated? David Parker South Africa.
