Title: COMPLETED 1851 census Sarah Smith please
Post by: ballgarside on Wednesday 21 October 09 20:27 BST (UK)
Hi.  Could someone please lookup Sarah Smith aged 12 (born in Whitley, Berkshire) on 1851 Berkshire census.  I would be interested to know her other family members' names/ages.  I'd also be interested in the 1841 and 1861 censuses for the same person if possible.

I wonder if Sarah was registered twice or if there were 2 Sarahs.

Yes that is annoying that there are two Sarahs.  The censuses can be annoying at times.  Could someone do a lookup for Dennis on 1861 and 1871 please?  He may well be dead by 1861, though I can find no death in Berkshire for him.  Thanks for your help Wendy.

With a name like Smith it doesn't pay to look too far afield!  Thanks for your help Wendy.  I'll mark this strand completed now.
