Title: DANIEL DURAND 1851 Census
Post by: Rootdigger on Thursday 18 December 08 15:26 GMT (UK)
Hi, :)

I am hoping someone can help me find Daniel Durand on the 1851 census for St. Mary the Virgin, Dover in Kent.  This particular census does not appear on Ancestry.com and I am appealing to anyone who might have the census disks for this county.

Daniel Durand was born abt. 1809 in St. Mary the Virgin, Dover.  In 1849 he md. Eliza Robinson (b. abt. 1816 in the same area).  This was a second marriage for both.

The 1861 census for this couple shows just Daniel, Eliza and a 'daughter', Elizabeth D (Durand?) Fuller, age 15.  The BMD shows two births - one - a March 1846 registration for,  Fuller, Elizabeth Durand Dover 5 115 and (2) a  June registration 1846 for FULLER,  Elizabeth     Dover  5 125.  I am trying to determine if Elizabeth was the illegitimate daughter of Daniel and Eliza before they married. or someone else was involved. 

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Dorothy

Daniel Durand was my Gr x 4 Grandfather.  I am related through his daughter Ann Mayne Durand, with his first wife Sarah Ann. 

I have the birth certificate for Elizabeth Durand Fuller.  It says that her mother was Elizabeth Fuller, and if I remember rightly she died not longer after her daughter was born.  Daniel then went on the marry Eliza Robertson in 1849. 

If you send me a pm, I can let you have more information on the Durand family.
