Title: Anything prior to 1871. Booth Family Yorks & Lancs
Post by: Brian1 on Tuesday 15 March 05 20:51 GMT (UK)
Hope someone can help get the Booth family back prior to the 1871 census.
Have a listing in the 1871 census for Joseph Booth 54, Edna ( wife ) 44 , John T. Booth 26 , Sarah A 22 & Elizabeth 12. All living Whitehead ?, Salford Road, Ashton u Lyne. Most were born in Saddleworth, Yorks.
Any info would be appreciated.
Brian1 ???

Hi

The 1861 census is due to go online sometime this year so you may get something then.  It is not yet fully name indexed

Hi,
Many thanks for getting back to me re. the 1861 census going on line with 1837online.com. I understand that Lancashire is in the next batch of 4 counties to be displayed, which should be in the next couple of months

Does your reply have a connection to the family shown who were born in Saddleworth Yorkshire?

Hi Brian1,

Just to let you know:  1837online.com allows an "1861 census person search" at no cost.  It is basically an index and contains info only on name, age, and location.   I looked up EDNA BOOTH in Lancashire and got 1 result:  age 35 in Ashton u Lyne.  If you think she is your Edna, you could search for the other names to see if you could assemble the family.  Unfortunately. there are an awful lot of Josephs.  It's a stop-gap measure, but it won't cost you anything but your time.
