    Default 1841+1851 census look-up Please

    Looking for Samuel Wood with wife Eden and family in Lincolnshire. All children were born in Hibaldstow, Lincolnshire I think.

    Samuel born Redbourne about 1794 (FreeCen 1861)
    Eden born Winteringham about 1806 (FreeCen 1861)

    Thanks in advance.

    Thank you very much Robin.

    I have the 1861 from FreeCen and also the 1881 where Eden is living with her 2 sons.

    The 1861 seems to show a lot of grandchildren living with them and also a son Samuel aged 6. This would put Eden at 49 when she had her last child, some 30 years after her first child.

    As I don't actually have a subscription to look at the censuses could I ask who was in the households in 1841 + 1851 Please

    Sorry, I didn't think of that.

    I can post the names later when I get home unless someone else can do the honours in the mean time.

    Thank you very much Jan, That confirms the children. The first child, Mary Ann born 1827 died a year later. Strange how little george is always put last on the census although he was born before Joseph. They put all the grandchildren before poor george on the 1861 census.

    Thank you again
