If someone could find this family on the 1851 census for Market Harborough, that would be wonderful: John GOODMAN, wife Sarah, and possibly step-children by the name of KERSLEY or similar spelling. Sarah was b. Overton, Hampshire and probably in her 30's. Probably at least 2 Kersley children - Harriet and George. Thanks!

Just to clarify this reply. Reference to Overton means Overton, Hampshire which is what the image actually shows. There is no Overton in Leicestershire. Interesting though because Overton is about 120 miles away from Great Bowden. Quite a long stretch for those times!

John And Sarah Goodman
HI
I have been doing my family tree for about 2-3 years now and came across this site today. John Goodman is my G G G Grandfather. He was born 1810 in Market Harborough and his first wife was Hannah Walden with whom he had about 5 children with, John, George, Elizabeth, Mary Ann and Martha. He was widowed and then married Sarah Kersley (nee Wiltshire) who was born in Overton. They had 2 children Alfred (1857, Leeds) and Sarah (1852, Market Harborough) This Sarah is my G G Grandmother. If you would like any other information I will try to help you.
