Title: Bennett Family 1871 Census Look Up Please
Post by: yjm on Sunday 11 December 16 17:09 GMT (UK)
Hi Guys,

Please can anyone help me find my Bennett Family in the 1871 Census.

I think this is them in the 1861 Census:-

Robert Bennett born 1835 Hargrave Suffolk (Head)
Mary Ann Bennett born 1834 Wickhambrook Suffolk (Wife)
Harriett Bennett 1856 Wickhambrook Suffolk (Daughter)
Frances Bennett 1860 Woodditton Cambridgeshire (Daughter)

and definitely them in the 1881 Census:-

Robert Bennett born 1835 Hargrave Suffolk (Head)
Mary Ann Bennett born 1834 Wickhambrook Suffolk (Wife)
George Bennett 1863 Old Ford London
Robert Bennett 1867 Old Ford London
Harriett Bennett born 1871 Old Ford London
James Bennett born 1879 Old Ford London
Albert Bennett born 1881 Old Ford London

but cannot find them in the 1871.

Any help very much appreciated

 :)

Have you tried the 1871 available on Family Search?

Thanks - Yes I have searched on both Family Search and Ancestry without any success, broadening my searches along the way and ending up with just Christian names but still to no avail.

I've not had any luck either.  They must have been in London in 1871 but nothing obvious
