Title: 1891 Census lookup please - Elizabeth Hicks
Post by: Elenimou on Wednesday 19 October 05 07:33 BST (UK)
I'm looking for Elizabeth Hicks in the 1891 Oxfordshire Census. Elizabeth was born in 1849 in Toot Baldon & was married to John Hicks. I am particularly interested in any children they may have had.
 Many Thanks
  Helen

They are not showing up immediately, but I assume you seen the 1881 census where they have Elizabeth's CURRILL children living with them, suggesting a second marriage?

Will look to see whether she is with them in 1891.

Yes I have seen that census. I am actually from the Currill line & am hoping to track down half siblings of William & Thomas.
Thanks for looking it up.
I've got my fingers crossed hoping for a result.
 Regards

Ah Yes - I hadn't read your names!

The nearest match I can find for John is this chap:

HICKS John H M 42 - farm lab - Drayton
HICKS Emma W M 34 - Garsington
HILLESDEN Agnes Lodger U 24 - do
HICKS Emily J dau 8 months? - South Weston

Address: Village of Drayton

I cannot find a corresponding death for Elizabeth, however.

Curiously, there IS an Elizabeth HICKS aged 50 born Baldon on the 1901 census!  She is housekeeper to Thomas DEAR in Maidenhead.  No children in the household.

Maybe she is just hiding in 1891?

 ;D

Don't know what to make of it all.
Looks like it's back to the drawing board.
 Many thanks for your help

Hi Linda

Welcome to Rootschat - I see Helen hasn't been on the site for a while: let's hope she pops back though!  It will be worth her while.

Thanks for sharing.

Kind regards, Arranroots  ;)
