I am trying to locate George Bingham on the 1851 census without success - can anyone offer any assistance?
He was born in c.1822 in Sheffield and his wife was called Harriet. They would have had at at least one child at this time - George, probably aged around 3. His wife was the same age as him, possibly a few months older, and was born in Barnsley.
George was a chimney sweeper and on the 1861 and 1871 censuses he was living on Pall Mall in Barnsley.
Also, if possible, can anyone locate him on the 1841 census? I don't know whether he would be living in Sheffield or Barnsley (or anywhere inbetween) but he would have been aged around 17 or 18 and unmarried - I know this is not much to go on, but any help at all would be fantastic!
Can anyone locate him?
Many thanks in advance. :)

Hi
I don't know if you still need this information but your George Bingham was the brother of my 2nd Great Grandfather, John Bingham and his wife Harriet was the sister of my 2nd Great Grandmother Sarah Hessel. I have a great deal more information about the Bingham family if you do not already have it.
