Hi
Thanks for your reply I have D Loveridge on :1881  1891  1901census with the exception of the 1881 it is spelt Laveridge not Loveridge but I am sure it is the same person ,and that from marrying my G Grandmother they moved in between Herefordshire ,Gloucestershire, Monmouth and Chesterfield I hope this explains it ok ,I have tried BMD and 1837 online but do not seem to be getting anywhere at all .
                                 many thanks Sheila

hi again

found this on the 1861 cencus if you look at the son david .............same christianname,same age and same place of birth.then look at mothers and fathers age.possibly mother remarried??? and david was from earlier marriage? might be worth seeing if you can find a marriage for this couple.i know its a long shot but you never know :)
