Hi I am hoping that someone can help me find the missing census for this family. I have found all the other census docs for this family except 1861 and they always lived at Rock/Wrockwardine Wood/Wellington. In 1871: Samuel ELLIS (age 73) and Mary (age 64) live at Rock, Wellington, Shropshire with their children Samuel (a miner, 20) Eliza (working in the pits, age 18), Sarah Ann (working in the pits, age 16) and John Henry (assistant, age 14). In 1861: Samuel ELLIS (age 53) and Mary (age 34) live at Rock, Ketley with their children Ellen (13), Martha (8), Samuel (1), and Eliza (5months). I just cannot find them in 1861 and suspect that may they have been mistranscribed due to poor writing or something. Does anyone have Ellis' in their tree - or can anyone help me find them in 1861! Thanks in advance! Kelly (from Perth, WA)
Hi, It can be St Georges or Oakengates so you could try just that and Samuel or Wrockwardine and Samuel (no Surname). Sorry, I don't have time to look for you but I have found lots of mine that way.
