Hi,
I've have tried to find William Brown in 1841, but so far he seems to be missing. I have him in 1851 age 45 blacksmith born Redruth. I think I have his marriage to Elizabeth Michell dated 1830 Redruth. If anyone with more research experience than I have can find him in 1841 I would be grateful for your help. I also have him and family in 1861 and 1881, but nothing for 1871.

This could be them in 1871 - RG10/2320/32/3
North Road, Loscombe
William Brown 65
Elizabeth Brown 57
Mary Ann M Brown 21
William Francis Body 9
If you need more details, let me know
BTW - when you already have people in the censuses, it is helpful if you can give the reference, so that we can find them more easily. :)
The reference above (RG10/2320/32/3) is a 'shorthand' way of showing Class: RG10; Piece: 2320; Folio: 32; Page: 3, which should be given somewhere with the census record (depending on which source you are using)
No luck so far with 1841 :'(

Hi and thanks Linda and Amber 39 for your replies. I don't think this is the Brown family I'm looking for in 1841 or 1871. The census ref. I have for 1851 is HP1071917 P 15 1861 is RG91580 P24 1881 RG11230681 P11, but it's the 1841 census I hoped to find for any info on William's sister in law recorded with his family in 1851. Perhaps it's missing. I may have to give up on this one. Thanks again.

Hi Taffess,
I think the 1871 Linda found is yours,Williams Occp Tin Mine Smith, born Redruth c 1806.
Grandson with them is William Francis BODY.
Rebecca BROWN Married Francis BODY, March 1860, Redruth, 5c 399
1861 Census Francis and Rebecca are living next door to;
William BROWN, 1806, Redruth, Blacksmith and Wife Elizabeth with Catherine 1839, William 1845 and Mary 1848.
RG9/1580/126/24
The Census you quoted in 1851 has a Daug Rebecka born c 1840 to William/Elizabeth.
HO107/1917/50/15
1851 Children are;
Joseph 1843
Elizabeth 1836
Catherine 1838
Rebecka 1840
William 1843
Mary 1847
The 1st 4 Children should be found in 1841 Census but I have had no luck even searching without a Surname!
Are you more interested in finding Elizabeth/Mary Anns Parents?
Are you descended from Mary Ann Michell?
Do you have her Marriage Cert?
Who did she Marry? Charles HAM 1853?
