Having been unsuccessful in helping Lance I thought I'd place it on Photobucket for you all to see and can be found at http://i219.photobucket.com/albums/cc199/Birstall46/jane.jpg It's the second entry from the top. For those of you with access to the 1851 census the reference is 107/2240 Folio 340 page 33. I'm not convinced it is Leicestershire and with some imagination I can make Cheshire out of the first word Bruce -----Original Message----- From: leicestershire-plus-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:leicestershire-plus-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Mel Smith Sent: Friday, March 14, 2008 9:52 AM To: 'Lance Mitchell'; LEICESTERSHIRE-PLUS@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [LEI] NEED HELP READING ANCESTORS BIRTHPLACE FROM 1851 CENSUS Lance: As you cannot attach files to Rootsweb mailing lists it would perhaps be better to provide the census reference numbers including folio and page number and name of head of household.
