Title: 1841/1851 census look-up Chapman (Silkstone)
Post by: Home User on Monday 15 August 05 16:54 BST (UK)
1841/1851 census look-up

Is it possible for anyone to do a search on the 1841/1851 census please?

I am trying to trace my husband's family but I can get no further back than George Chapman 1808 ... I believe George's wife was called Hannah Senior.   
Here are the details I have so far:

George's Father called George Chapman 1808?? and mother's name Hannah Senior they were married 18 Mar 1833 in Parish Church, Silkstone, Yorkshire.  They had a son named George:

GEORGE CHAPMAN was born May 1833 in Chapel Allerton York, and died 1889.  He married JANE ANN MIDGLEY 1858 in St Peter,

Leeds.  She was born 1828 in York, and died 1882.

Notes for GEORGE CHAPMAN:

    Birth Year 1833
    Birthplace York, England 
    Age 48  in 1881 Census
    Occupation Labourer Quarry Stone

I have no more details of the marriage of George and Hannah, or if there were any siblings to  either George (1833)  or George (1808) or of George's parents. I would be most grateful if anyone could point me in the right direction.

Thank you
