Title: William Blundell 1861 completed
Post by: Clarep on Saturday 19 May 07 21:08 BST (UK)

Can anyone help with a look up on the 1861 census please?    :-\

I have been trying, without success  to find William (c1814), Jane (c1816) BLUNDELL & children, all born St Pancras on the 1861 census.  ::)

In 1851 they were living in Caroline Place, St Pancras. The family comprised of;
William, 36, Wood Sawyer.
Jane, Wife, 34.
Eliza, Dau, 13.
James, Son, 6.
Emma, Dau,  3.
George, Son, 1.

In 1871 William was a widower living in Ashby St, St Pancras.
William, 57, General Labourer.
Ellen, Dau, 16.
William, Son, 11.

Many Thanks,
Clare.  :)

Hi Tom,

Many thanks for checking for me but I don't think they are my family as they would have been older.

I can't see them at all in the 1861. I don't think it's the family in Thanet place - the ages, occupation and birthplaces are all wrong.

Per the GRO BMD's a Jane Blundell died in St Pancras in 1856.  If that was William's wife, who was the mother of William b. 1860?

There are a couple of William Blundell marriages in St Pancras on the LDS site. One in 1856 is to a Jane Woodford - that is probably the Thanet Place family. There is another in 1857 to Susannah Wright, who appears to have died in St Pancras in 1865 per the GRO.

Thank you both for trying to find my William Blundell & family.

I think Jane died in 1862, I have sent for the certificate so if it is the right one hopefully I may get some more clues as to their whereabouts.  ::)

Thanks again,
Clare.  :)
