Title: 1841 census
Post by: cavvy on Monday 19 September 05 22:04 BST (UK)
Hi

i have traced back to known ancestor
James Blowers marr elizabeth roberts 1831 frostendon. John remarried harriet shelley in 1840 at frostendon.

i am trying to track down who his parents were.

His parents are possibly John Blowers c1782 Rumburgh and Mary Gowing or
James Blowers c1791 wrentham and Elizabeth.
although i am not certain of this.  the family are from the wrentham, frostendon area. any help or adress would be appreciated.   ???

Hi
I found James jnr as follows in 1841 in Frostendon
James 25 Ag labourer
Harriet 25
James 9
William ? (can't read the age)
John 6
Elizabeth 4
Benjamin 1/2

If this is your James he looks like he had two lives on the go!!
I will carry on looking for his parents

Maybe I did your ancestor a disservice and the children that were with him in 1841 were from his first marriage and only Benjamin was his son with Harriet sorry  :-[

Hi

Thanks for your help

i have James and Harriet in frostendon in 1881 with elizabeth 25 (james and elizabeth dau), george 16, ann 14, and henry 12. living Carlton Green Road.

i know from the parish records some of james and elizabeths children were james, john and elizabeth.

james was christened 1832, john 1833, elizabeth 1837  which would fit. benjamin im not sure if he belongs to elizabeth or harriet.

many thanks again.   ;D
