Hi,
just checked what is showing for 1851 and there is only one James Ledgerwood so far - but this is still not complete.
The on I found was married to Ann and 64 years old with an 8 year old son James.
Don't suppose you have an address we could check for you?

Hi cougar,
                I know Martha Ledgerwood was living at 12 Bridge Head,Hammersmith from the 1861 Census.
               Maybe the family was there in 1851/1841.

Hope I am right. and thanks for your help.
 
 Augusto.

Hi Cougar,
                I was wondering do you have the Address of the James Ledgerwood 64,
                Wife: Ann,  Son: James 8
           They maybe relevant to the rest of the Ledgerwoods I am researching from Hammersmith.
                I also Know there was a brother Charles 40,with wife Mary 36,daug.Catherine 9 from the same area.
                Also there was a brother John 42,with sons William 13 & James 11 and a nephew William Bryant 19.
               They all then immigrated to Australia in 1853.
I hope this information helps with my initial request.
 
Kind regards,     Augusto from Australia.

Hello

I'm doing a bit of housekeeping and noticed this older request.  Wondering if you are still looking for anything on this topic or you have resolved it in the meantime?  If you're still looking, this might be a tough one to find so do you have any further info to add that might assist finding them?

If we don't hear from you in a while, I'll assume the latter and move it to the 'completed' section.

Regards
Biker
