Hello Marg, Thanks for the reply. Just a couple of queries, I have Elizabeth in 1851 census as being born St Georges Hanover Square,and if they were married in 1837 why was he not with her in 1841. I wish people would keep the same spelling of their names.it would make life a lot easier.

Don't forget the census is just a snapshot of one night, so he could have been staying with friends, away on business. > > On 07 December 2015 at 12:22 mike smith via <[email protected]> wrote: > > > Hello Marg, > Thanks for the reply.
