I wish to locate the birthplace of Elizabeth Smith - born about 1808 in Northamptonshire.

She married William Money of Burton Coggles, Lincolnshire in 1829 and I have the following census entries

1851: Source information: HO107/2102
Registration district: Grantham, Sub-registration district: Colsterworth, Folio: 142, Page: 47
Household schedule number: 56, Burton Coggles, Lincolnshire
NOTE all names wrongly transcribed as Maney tather than MONEY
William Maney, 43, abt 1808 Burton Coggles, Lincolnshire, England Head, Agricultural Labourer
Elizabeth Maney, 41, abt 1810 Napington, Northamptonshire, England Wife
John Maney, 18, abt 1833 Corby, Lincolnshire, England Son, Railway Labourer
Robert Maney, 12, abt 1839 Burton, Lincolnshire, England Son, Agricultural Labourer

Now, where was Elizabeth MONEY - nee SMITH - born?

Can someone suggest what village is rendered her as Napington or Barrington?

Thanks for any help you can offer.

Looking at the 1851 entry, it is Nafsington, or in modern spelling Nassington. A double ss is often written with the first "s" looking like an "f". It is west of Peterborough. Just looked at the 1861 entry. It quite clearly says Nassington. The transcription had been "Ancestried"! |shakehead

ps Do you have the 1841 entry?

Than you Wirral. Thats a great help. I can now start to explore this Smith line.

You ask if I have the 1841 entry. I did receive this bare bones entry via the Lincs Forum:
1841 Census
(Kindly provided by Geoff Everitt via BG Lincs Forum)
615-28/6
Burton Coggles
Robert MONEY 79
William 30 AgLab
Elizabeth 32?
Sarah 10
John 8
Elizabeth 5
Robert 2
Francis 3m

Can you add any flesh to those bones?

Sorry David, but that is about all the info that the 1841 census gives, except that all the family were born in the county.

The ages of people 15+ were supposed to be rounded down to the nearest 5 years. There are only 2 exceptions on folio 6. One was Robert MONEY age 79.

Thanks, Wirral. I think I'll leave her on the back burner for a while. There's plenty else to chase!
