Title: VANSCHAGEN Look up request 1851
Post by: Pat236 on Monday 16 May 05 23:44 BST (UK)

I am reposting this request as I did not include the address they were living at in 1861
and was wondering if you could look up 1841/1851 Census for the VANSCHAGEN family. I have only just
come across this family in my tree and have them in 1861 as living at 2 Hart Lane, LUTON
GEORGE FRANCIS ISAAC PAUL VANSCHAGEN born 1818 St Pancras, London - married
to Martha BATES nee (Fensom) born abt 1809 - Luton
Children
Charles born 1849 - Luton Age 11 in 1861
In 1871 Charles had married Sarah (born Luton) and had a son Henry born 1869
Luton.
There are a few variations to the spelling VANSCHAGANS , VANSCHAG(E)NS and also the same without the C.
As this is an unusual name any information would be greatly appreciated.
Regards
Patricia

Hi Patricia,

I think this has to be them (although if I didn't know differently, I would have probably transcribed this as Vanschagir).

Hi Pat,

A quick look on FreeBMD: http://freebmd.rootsweb.com/cgi/search.pl

brings up:

Marriages Jun 1845

Vauschagen George Francis Issaic Paul Luton 6 149
Bates Martha Luton 6 149

Take this information and order the marrige certificate from:

http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificate/

And usually this will show both the spouse and groom's Father.

Cheers Rob
