1841 Lookup North Bovey or Widecome

[brayfrka]

Hi, I am looking for George French born North Bovey in 1826. In 1851 he is living in Widecome in the Moor but I wondered if anyone could help with 1841 (he would have been 15)..please..........................

Dear AnnB,
Thank you so so so much for the information. I have been looking so long for this information and it was a real sticking point for me in going further back with my Tree. We just didn't have a clue about George's parents and siblings and in 1851 George was alone. I will now have to start following his siblings so that will keep me busy for a while.
Thanks again for your help
