    3. Hi, can someone with access to the 1851 Census help me find my GG Grandfather William TERRY. He was born abt 1846/7. I believe his father was William and his mother Henrietta. He had brothers Benjamin and Alfred who should also show on the census aged abt 2 and 3 years old. Thank you.

The 'inhabitants' were not only Germans but some Italians and I remember they wore brown uniforms with a blue square on their backs. Perhaps that prompts some memories?

    3. Hi Elaine. This would be in Southampton, would it? If you actually live in Southampton, why not call in to the Special Studies section of the Central Library,and take a look at the 1851 census indexes for yourself. You'll find they also have indexes to 1861, 1871 and 1891 there too.
