Title: 1891 Census Lookup,West Linton Balkholme
Post by: gereon on Friday 29 July 11 03:21 BST (UK)
Hi,I am in need of help with the 1891 census details for,Thomas Foster,born  1835, Faxfleet Yorkshire.
In 1881 Thomas Foster age 46 is a farmer of 223 acres at West Linton Balkholme York.
With him are his wife Elizabeth Foster, age 43,her two children from a previous marriage,George William Peckett aged 21 and Thomas Peckett aged 17.
Also the children of Thomas and Elizabeth,Lillie Foster age 5,Fred Foster age 4 and Ernest Foster age 1.
Have searched the Free Census sites and Family Search but have had no luck finding them.I did find a marriage of Thomas Foster at Howden 1874 to Elizabeth Peikett which I think is them.
Any help greatly appreciated.
gereon.

Hi Jackie, were you wondering abot the Sarah Foster,grand daughter?I know I was as I was unaware of a previous marriage.I only found the one at Howden 1874 to Elizabeth Peikitt which I took for granted was meant to be Peckett.
The parents of Thomas were William Foster and Sarah Foster (maiden name Proctor) Thomas Foster chrs.11th Oct at Blacktoft Yorkshire.
Cheers.gereon.

Thanks again Jackie for your prompt replies,though it does raise the question,who did the grand children belong to?There has to have been I guess a previous marriage,but without the brides name its a bit of a mystery.Many thanks for all the info and food for thought.Very greatly appreciated.
Cheers.gereon. ;D

Woops,I missed your last reply.Yes It would be great to have the previous census .I have handwritten notes that only have Thomass name ,perhaps the whole report may shed some light.You are very kind.
Cheers.gereon ;D

Hi there,thats right Frank Foster the brother of Thomas,was married to Hannah Leighton 1866 at Hull.They had eight children,Sarah being born 1878 at Howden.Just to get confusing they also had another daughter,Charlotte Alice Foster,born 1874 at Howden who on the 1891 Census,is living with one of Frank and Thomass sisters Sarah Foster who is married to Thomas Campsall at Goole Yorkshire.It seems that the Foster children were farmed out a little,maybe looking for prospective husbands as Charlotte Alice Foster married Henry Harrison 1894 at Goole.But I guess Im straying from the path here.
Cheers.gereon.
