Title: 1851 Census lookup
Post by: coelynne on Wednesday 06 May 09 05:39 BST (UK)

My 2 times great grandmother Frances Ann Thomas was left an orphan after the death of her father - Rev Richard Thomas in Hemswell, Lincolnshire in June 1848.

I am hoping someone might be able to look her up for me on the 1851 census - she was born 17 March 1833 in Stanford Rivers, Essex.  She may be living with her brothers - Thomas Metcalf Thomas (christened in 1824), Robert Mitchinson Thomas (christened in 1826)  and William Henry Thomas (christened in 1831).

I would appreciate any assistance - I realise Thomas is a very common surname.

Thank you

I have been corrected by GeoffE, thankyou

In his opinion she is aged 18 and born Stanford. I just took the place of birth off the index and yes i see it says 18, my apologies
