Title: 1841 census
Post by: CarolH215 on Monday 16 May 05 12:40 BST (UK)

Hope someone can help me.  I am looking for the following people. 

William Kilner and his wife Hannah Thorpe.  They were married in Old Church, St. Pancras, London, Middlesex in 1834.  They had a daughter that was born in London in 1843 named Elizabeth Kilner.  She is my GGGrandmother.  I got the marriage date from papers an elderly great aunt gave my dad with a family memento.  Thank you for any information. ???

Thank you so much for the information.  I now need to find out if there was a census after this date but before 1851.  My Elizabeth immigrated to the US in 1851 and I can not find either of her parents. 

Thank you again.

Hi Carol

Glad to have helped,censuses are held in the UK every ten years.
So, unfortunately there will not be one after 1841-till 51  ::)

Are you saying Elizabeth turned up in the USA age 7ish without parents?

Have you checked the website FreeBMD to see if they both died before then.
What about her sisters Mary and Jane-have you tracked them down?

 Yes I have not been able to find any records of William and Hannah (Thorpe) Kilner at all.  I have found a Jane Kilner in 1860 living in Boston that might be her sister but nothing definite.  I am just starting searching for them.  Is the name of the website you suggested looking on for the Free BMD www.freebmd.com?

Well, I checked and their were a couple of Williams from York and Wortley and a few Hannah's from Huddersfield, Sheffield and Islington but I have no way of knowing if they are the ones I am looking for.  My Kilners have been found through the marriage in Pancras and the christening  of the two older daughters in St. Marylebonne.  The search goes on.  Guess I will just have to go visit England and see if I can find anything.   :)
