Title: 1861 census Manchester look up
Post by: Louisa on Monday 22 March 04 16:36 GMT (UK)

John Towmsend was living at 23 Paradise Row Broughton Rd Salford in 1854. Could anyone do a look up in the 1861 census for me. or in the burial records. he must have been approaching 70 years by then. Thanks for any help. Louisa.
