Title: 1851 census look up needed
Post by: lyla on Tuesday 01 January 13 13:24 GMT (UK)
Hi

Would somebody be kind enough to do a census look up for me? I'd like to know the family and ages of the Henry Collins aged 8 born Ireland who is residing in Liverpool.
 
(Apologies if this is a duplicate - I thought I just now posted but I can't see it anywhere).

Many thanks
Lyla

Perhaps you are thinking of other posts looking for a Henry Collins?

Renfrewshire- 1851 Paisley - is it possible?:

Thanks but unfortunately that's not my Henry.

It's very strange because he came up with those details on findmypast but I just look on ancestry and he is not there!

Hi aghadowey

Yes they are my posts from ages ago. Still no further forward and so following up another long shot idea!

Thanks for your interest

Ancestry have transcribed his age as 3 not 8 (8 on the image).  He is living with his widowed mother Ann aged 34 and brother James  aged 14 all born Ireland.  It is not looking like he is your Henry.

Great, thanks for looking. At least that is someone else I can rule out.
