Title: 1851 census look up
Post by: Dorothy Payne on Monday 15 November 04 22:18 GMT (UK)

Can anyone help?  I would like to find the family of John and Elizabeth BROCK  on the 1851 census for Bethnal Green. John may have been called William and his wife was Elizabeth. They have children, Frederick William, Mary Anne, and Alfred John (that I know of). They lived at 21 Green Street.  Any help with this Brock family would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Dorothy

Hi
There is more than 21 Green Street in the area.
The first I checked was a family called Sparkes.
The next one family of Boater.
The 3rd Green St is ref HO107 1540 folios 139/140 but the 1540 index only starts at folio 177 so have asked for a replacement of that piece.
If you put in Green St Bethnal Green though it comes up with 0 results.
Sorry couldn't help
Cheers Cougar

Cougar,

Thank you for trying. Your help is greatly appreciated. 21 Green Street is the address given on the baptism records in the Parish of St. Mary Spittal, Middlesex, Dec. 9, 1846.  Perhaps they had moved by 1851. John was listed as a Tailor.  I have no other record for this family until the marriage of son Frederick William Brock in 1862.  He married Isabella Sheppard in the District Parish Church,  St. John the Baptist, Hoxton, Middlesex.

I'm slowly learning to navigate this site and found clicking on the world produced your web address.  What a beautiful site, your family tree is lovely.  Thanks again, Dorothy

I could not find your family ib the 1851 indexes for Bethnal green or Whitechapel.

I think St Mary Spittal without Bishopsgate is in Stepney.  It seems to be near Middlesex Street (Petticoat Lane)
