Hi Michelle I have been through the discs for 41 and 51 census Redruth and just cant seen to locate Henry Dunstan at all in Redruth...I believe I have found Elizabeth in both though there r contradictions....... ::)
1851 Census
HO107/1915 Folio 170 Page 29
Grant Court
Redruth Cornwall
RIPPER Daniel Head 58 (Place of Birth Unreadable) Cornwall ? and Copper Miner
RIPPER Elizabeth 42 Wife (Place of Birth Unreadable) Cornwall
RIPPER Elizabeth Dau 22 b Redruth Cornwall Dress Maker
RIPPER Mary 13 Dau b Redruth General Servant
Now in that one one would expect Elizabeths age to be around 50 but it sure looks more like a 4 than a 5 to me ??? written before Daniels occupation is something starting with a Pa (Mayb Pauper) precedes Copper Miner Basically the whole entry is a shocker to try to read
Now 41 is quite clear my problem here is Elizabeth is 3 ??? ...clear as a bell where it should b more like 12 and there should be Mary 3 who isnt there..... ??? yet it is certainly the same people (Unless they mixed up there kids and this is Mary at home and Elizabeth is somewhere) LOL
1841 census does not list Places of birth only yes or no for in or outside the county no relationships r listed and adult ages can be rounded down in multiples of 5
HO107/143 Folio 14 Page 36
Cock Pit
Redruth Cornwall
RIPPER Daniel 45 Yes Copper Miner
RIPPER Elizabeth 40 Yes
RIPPER Elizabeth 3 Yes
Dont know that it has helped much but it does give u Elizabeths Father if nothing else
Cheers Kris ;D
