Dear Listers, Does anyone have a Henry William ROGERS in their tree,? I bought this cert which does not belong to me and wondered if it belongs to someone on the list. This Henry William Rogers was a Mechanical Engineer (Retired) died aged 65yrs 5th May, 1893, at Sydling Lodge, Union Road . Cause of death was Cerebral Softening (2yrs), Cerebral Haemorrhage 12 hours(according to cert). An E .Laffarn was present at the death. 1 Grafton Square, Clapham . If you have this fellow, please let me know . My Henry died 1896 and I have that cert. Cheers Chris Australia

Hi Sarah Try http://maps.familysearch.org/ Enter St George Hanover Square You will be presented with three options Parish Civil Registration District Poor Law Union Various other options presented when you select each However, churches being so close to each other in London, a family could use any they chose to, or none, or could be non conformist Changes of occupation were quite common, but may be from the informant giving inaccurate or false information Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) On 25/05/2016 18:15, Sarah Torline via wrote: > Hello All! > > > I recently found the family of my g-g-g-g-grandfather, John LEECH, in > the 1841 UK Census.

Hello All! I recently found the family of my g-g-g-g-grandfather, John LEECH, in the 1841 UK Census. (Forgive my lack of knowledge on the various enumeration districts in the UK Censuses... I'll cite the source as best as I can). The family was living in the county of Middlesex, in the civil parish of St George Hanover Square, living at Ranelagh Grove Pimlico (Class: HO107; Piece: 732; Book: 15; Civil Parish: St George Hanover Square; County: Middlesex; Enumeration District: 43; Folio: 7; Page: 7; Line: 1; GSU roll: 438834) LEECH, John - 45 LEECH, Elizabeth - 40 LEECH, Maria - 20 LEECH, Elizabeth - 15 LEECH, Thomas - 15 LEECH, Matilda - 2 LEECH, John Burgess - 9 No luck finding them in the 1851 Census yet, as Thomas had already left for America at that point (John Burgess left for America after Thomas did, but he may have already been gone at that point as well) & I can't find the rest of the family. I've got birth & death certificates from the GRO for the youngest child, Matilda Jane LEECH from 1839 & 1842 showing they were still living in St George Hanover Square, so I know that the family was there between those years. So my next goal is to find birth/baptism records for my g-g-g-grandfather, Thomas LEECH, and maybe some of his other siblings. Since they were all born prior to 1837 when the BMD records became centralized, I know I need to look at individual parish records. Does anyone know where I can find out what churches would have been located in the St George Hanover Square civil parish from the early-1820's to the mid-1840's? I thought I had some good possibilities, but apparently John's profession changed multiple times, so I'm not 100% sure if it's the right family. From 1839-1842, he was a Carpenter. When Thomas LEECH married his 2nd wife in 1873, his father's profession was listed as a Licensed Victualler. Other baptism records I've found that I think may be correct show his profession as either a Merchant/Tradesman or a Bookseller. So I'm a little bit lost and not sure what to try next. Any suggestions? Thanks! ~ Sarah Dallas, TX

For example, £500 in 1840 would have paid the salaries of ten teachers (or of clergy in poorer parishes) for a year. Or paid for a number of small houses.

Hi Chris I have found William's mother - now a widow aged 32 - in the 1851 census. Still in Ebenezer Buildings where the family are in 1841. She gives her birthplace as Great Dunmow Essex so I am sure there is a link to my Gunner family - also dyers and linked to Dunmow. William's brothers, Edward aged 10. and Henry 8 and Richard 4 are with her. No sign yet of his older sister Sarah, nor william himself. I will keep looking and send direct emails with any findings.

Dear Listers, I am wondering if SKS could look up the 1851 census for the family of GUNNER. I am interested to see if my William GUNNER and his brother Edward were still living in London at the time. His parents were David and Elizabeth GUNNER altho' his father died in 1847 and Elizabeth remarried a Peter Pritchard. The family originally were at Ebenezer Buildings, I think Shoreditch. I don't have access to Ancestry, hence the request. Many thanks for your help. Cheers Chris Australia

Chris, Try FamilySearch.org. They have the 1851 England Census available (free). The images may be on FindMyPast.co.uk however. Also, look at www.freecen.org.uk to see if what you need is available there.
