    Default 1841 Lookup North Bovey or Widecome

    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..........................

    I meant to reply to this earlier, but, better late than never
    Thanks to Archive CD Books wonderful scan of the Devon 1841 census, I have found the following French's in North Bovey. Thought you might like them all, rather than just George.

    Default Thanks for lookup

    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
