Can anyone search the 1841 census for me.
I am looking for William Carter born 1820/21 in Soyland or Sowerby. The 1861 census puts his birth place as Soyland, Halifax, West Yorkshire. The 1851 census puts his birth place as Sowerby, Halifax, West Yorkshire. I know his father was called James Carter but thats it. I would like to know his mothers name and any immediate family members. Without the 1841 census I am pretty much stuck.
Thanks,
Yorkshire Lad.

Ok, where was he residing when he gave these places of birth.?
(Theres very little geographically between them).
You have his father's name; do you also have his occupation?
