Title: 1861 look up Sark for William Eaglen please
Post by: Treelover on Monday 09 July 07 22:41 BST (UK)

Hi everyone,

Is it possible someone has the 1861 census for Sark.  I have WIlliam Eaglen born in 1838 Saham Toney, Norfolk. I cannot find him on English census but I think I might know where he is.

He goes missing after 1851 marries circa 1865 (cannot trace marriage so I think its in Sark) and by 1871 is back in Norfolk with wife Mary born. Sark, 1847.

His first child is born in Norfolk in 1866. I think he was in Sark between 1852 and 1865.

Can anyone help please?

Thanks
Joan

Unfortunately the 1861 census of Sark was lost or destroyed before the microfilm copies were made.  I don't believe any copies exist.
