Title: 1881 Census Samuel Hearnden
Post by: Dorothy13 on Friday 10 October 08 20:32 BST (UK)

Trying  to locate Samuel William Hearnden, born in Boston USA in 1881 census.

Can find him in 1871 and 1891 but not 1881.
He got married in Wolverhampton  in Sept 1881 and he was a shoemaker
Any help would be appreciated

Many Thanks
Dorothy

THOS WM HEARNDON            24  Shoemaker          "      USA Boston
States he was a Boarder But indicates married but this could be an error as you say he married Sept 1881.

Thanks for this. Age, occupation and place of birth are right. Also his wife that me married int he Sept was from this area so it all fits. Not sure why Thomas and will probably never know - could just be a mistake.

Many Thanks
