G'day Listers Some help please! Could someone please, who has access to the 1881 Census page scans on Ancestry, (not FamilySearch), check a listing for me. Am primarily interested in the spelling of a Surname in this Census. I am looking for a Westley WAPLING, (surname from FreeBMD 1858 Birth registration page scan). Also shown as Westley WOPLING, (surname from FreeBMD 1879 marriage registration page scan). Westley married Emma FARTHING in Romford R D in December quarter 1879. There son's surname is shown as WOPLIN in a FreeBMD 1880 birth registration. At the time of the 1881 Census, Emma had her younger sister, Rose Farthing, 8 years old, and born Lindsey, Suffolk, living with her. This latter information on Rose should assist in finding this family group quickly FamilySearch shows Emma & Westley as: "Werlesy & Emma WOPUN". The 1881 Census family Source Information is: Dwelling: 23 Hermit St Census Place: West Ham, Essex, England Family History Library Film: 1341409 Public Records Office Reference: RG11 Piece / Folio: 1712 / 86 Page Number: 59 Thanks in anticipation Eddie Tricker

Cc'd as this is the fourth attempt !!!! Getting rather fed up with bouncing posts :-( Hi Eddie The enumerators writing is abysmal , my interpretation would be Werlesy WOPLIN However if you check against the 1871 , the combination of birth place suggest your target Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) > G'day Listers > Some help please! > Could someone please, who has access to the 1881 Census page scans on > Ancestry, (not FamilySearch), check a listing for me.
