Long shot as i dont know if she would still be alive but could someone look up Lydia Love on the 1851 census, i need to know where she was born. I think she was born around 1770
Thanks
-
do you have her on 1841 census if so what is the source citation number
i cannot see her in 1851 nor 1841

Thanks, was hoping she made it to 51.

This is a useful site for Norfolk registers:
http://www.genealogy.doun.org/transcriptions/index.php
There is a marriage between John Love and Lydia West in 1766, and three of their first children are listed but no Lydia. They may have had other children, including Lydia, in an unlisted parish.
What do you know of your Lydia?

Her maiden name was Lydia Goldspink, there is one listed on Free Reg but im not sure if it is her.

The site I gave you lists a Lydia Goldspink, b Deopham in 1768. It's a rare name, but I don't know how you know she was born c1770 in Norfolk. Is it from the 1841 census?
As you probably know an ancestral file on IGI has her born in Norfolk in 1778 and marrying James Love in 1799.
