Title: William Etherington 1851/1861 census
Post by: Bambino on Wednesday 14 March 07 13:21 GMT (UK)
Could anyone help me please.  I'm trying to track down this elusive soul on any census - except 1871, which I have!).  William (possibly E) Etherington born Birmingham about 1828.  By 1863 he is married to Mary Wright (nee Jeffrey, born Norwood Green)) and has a daughter also Mary (born 1863 St Lukes, Middx) and is a Dredgerman and the family are living Macclesfield Rd Cottages, St Matthew Finsbury.  I can also find no record of his marriage to Mary!

Any info or ideas for further research would be most gratefully recieved

Thanks  Bambino

Hello Bambino,

I think this is their marriage:

William Edward Etherington to Mary Wright Jeffrey
Lambeth Vol 1d Page 349
June Quarter 1856

On FreeBMD Mary is also transcribed as Mary Albright Jeffrey

1861 - RG9; Piece: 149; Folio: 83; Page: 17

Canal Terrace, Islington, Finsbury

Mary W Etherington, Wife, M, 23, b Norwood Green

William is not listed with her, but she is the first entry on a page. He is not on the previous page either, but she is not listed as the Head. Maybe the Enumerator missed him off?

I'll take a look at the other census and report back!

Kind Regards,

Karen
