Hi am looking for the family of emily jannette Bowsher - In 1851 she would have been 16. Her fathers name was John Bowsher and he was a farmer.
I can't find them anywhere in the census - can anyone help?

Hi Gaylene,
Do you have a birthplace for her, from later census returns? :)

Shrewsbury shropshire. She married Arthur Pugh in 1856 . I have also seen her name as boucher and bowcher. But I can;t find her in the census under either of those as well.
