Thank you all very much for your prompt replies & all the very exciting information. Denise, I would be very grateful for copies of the 1871 census report for George and his new family. Sorry about the census year it was of course in 1861 that George was 46 years of age. All the best Heather son Charles in 1881 was a Porter... Name Estimated Birth Year Birthplace Relationship to head-of-house Civil parish County Annie Dunman Stephens abt 1857 Puddletown, Dorset, England Wife Puddletown Dorset George Humphrey Stephens abt 1851 Lymington, Hampshire, England Head Puddletown Dorset Charles Young abt 1867 Trowbridge, Wiltshire, England Porter Puddletown Dorset This looks like son George's death George Young Birth Date: abt 1865 Year of Registration: 1874 Quarter of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec Age at death: 9 District: Melksham County: Wiltshire Volume: 5a Page: 73 and this is probably George Sr's death George Young Birth Date: abt 1817 Year of Registration: 1873 Quarter of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar Age at death: 56 District: Melksham County: Wiltshire Volume: 5a Page: 76 I would be grateful if someone could check out the 1871 census for my George Young. He married Esther Phillips from Coldharbour Hinton in 1846 and became a farmer as her father had land. In 1861 They are living at 295 Pound Stone Street Trowbridge. George Young is 46 years of age, birth place looks like Keevil. A farmer of 40 acres. Esther died in 1862 and is buried at Steeple Ashton. Can anyone locate him in 1871 to see if he has remarried, please? Thanks Heather
