Title: 1851 census - Richmond, Surrey
Post by: Bambino on Wednesday 30 June 04 09:50 BST (UK)
Hi!
I'm searching for
Richard Collins HAWKES in Richmond, b. abt 1819, Richmond
Jane HAWKES b abt 1816, Clapham
John HAWKES b. abt 1848, Richmond

John was born in Hill St in 1848, but I do not know if that was where they were for the 1851.  They were still in Richmond somewhere in 1856 when a daughter, Alice was born in 1856.

Any info much appreciated.
Thanks - Bambino

Thank you Bryant!  That really helps with the jigsaw! Feeling a bit ignorant - Do you know what MS means? Would it be male-servant?

Thanks again - Louise

Hello,
that might be 'Mount ARARAT House' in 1841 - present day Mount Ararat Road in Richmond intersects with another road called The Vineyard.   :)

Hi again!
Just remembered that Richmond Libraries' website has a lot of info on Hill Street, including censuses for each house number, at
www.richmond.gov.uk/home/leisure_and_culture/local_history_and_heritage/local_studies_collection/a_walk_down_hill_street.htm
Hope this helps!   :)

What a fascinating web site! Thanks so much  :)
Some fab pictures!  Had a quick scan, but not found them yet, tho annoyingly I think most of the family had moved to Queens St for the 1851 and others were in Upper Hill St!
Still, it's a great point of reference for further investigation.

Thanks again!
