Title: 1841 census lookup Please - ABBISS - Hitchin
Post by: MagpieCott on Monday 13 February 06 22:28 GMT (UK)

Hi is anyone able to help me by looking up a James Abbiss on the 1841 Herts census - he was born at Wallsworth near Hitchin in Hertfordshire on 3 June 1812.   He had a wife by the name of Jane (maiden name unknown)  I am particularly interested to see what his profession was.
Would really appreciate any help.
Kind regards
Claire

Hi Claire,

I have traced a James Abbiss, age 25 and William Abbiss, age 40, both lodging with a widow Phillis Shelton, age 72 and four Shelton children aged from 5 to 14 at Charlton, Hitchin.    No occupations are shown for the lodgers but they were both born in county.

The Ickleford PRs record the baptism of James s/o John and Ann Abbiss on 25th October 1812 whilst the BIVR records the marriage of John Abbiss and Ann Fox on 26 November 1808 at Ickleford.

Hope this helps.
