Title: FARNHAM CENSUS LOOK UP - MATTHEWS
Post by: keithd on Friday 08 July 05 01:40 BST (UK)
Hi
Can anyone assist me with the following family?
1841/1851/1861 WILLIAM MATTHEWS, shoe maker aged about 20 on 1841. WIFE SARAH m Dec 1842, her county of birth Sussex.

1841/1851 Census Phoebe Matthews, widow, aged about 46 in 1841

1841 to 1861 MARY ANN WILKINSON, daughter, aged about 1 (if that) in 1841 but maybe born 1842. Looking for parents esp in 1841.

I am really new at this! Any advice on how I might trace this Farnham family back from the marriage of THOMAS MATTHEWS AND PHOEBE PALLIN married CRONDALL 01/11/1836?

Thanks so much!
Keith

Hi Keith,

I can help you with the 1861 England Census-I don't have access to the 1841 or 51 censuses - someone else may be able to help you with these.

Here is William, Sarah and their large family (on the image the spelling is Mathews) living at Castle St, Farnham Surrey

William Mathews born c1822 age 39 Farnham, Surrey Cordwainer  Head
Sarah Mathews born c1821 age 40 Sutton, Sussex,  Wife
Thomas Mathews born c1842 age 19 Farnham, Surrey Cordwainer Son
Henry F Mathews born c1847 age 14 Farnham, Surrey erand boy Son
William Mathews born c1848 age 13 Farnham, Surrey scholar Son
Rose Mathews born c1850 age 11 Farnham, Surrey scholar Daughter
Fredrick Mathews born c1851 age 10 Farnham, Surrey scholar  Son
Ellen Mathews born c1853 age 8 Farnham, Surrey, scholar  Daughter
Phebe Mathews born c1857 age 4 Farnham, Surrey,  Daughter
George Mathews born  c1859 age 2 Farnham, Surrey,  Son
Jessamine Mathews  born c1853  age 8 Farnham, Surrey scholar Niece

RG9/432  Fol 65  Pgs 19 and 20

I am also interested in Matthews in Surrey - but at this stage I can't see a connection with yours.

All the best,

margaret :)
