James Edmund Oates b. 6 Apr 1815 in Shoreditch
Mary Elizabeth Oates b. 29 Jul 1819

all baptised at St Leonards Shoreditch

Henry possibly remarried 23 JUN 1827 in Saint Dunstan In The West, London to Sarah PRYOR

James Edmund OATES married Emma FORDHAM (born 1816 in Widford, Herts) on 29 August 1841 at St Katherine Coleman, London City.

Census and Resource Discussion / Re: Release Census Early Campaign - Please read & reply !

I find the whole thing so frustrating!!  I cannot see why the census cannot be released now - how many people over 96 years of age are still living and therefore likely to be on the census?  What is so secret about your name, age and occupation in any case?  OK, so there might be a few skeletons coming to light but to those of us researching our family history, this only serves to make it more exciting.  I am well into my 60s so don't have too much time left!  I hope I shall survive to see the release of the 1911 census but doubt if I shall be here for the 1921!

If anyone finds any OATES members on the above censuses, I would be pleased to know about them.  My feeling is that they have been mistranscribed as I cannot find them on any index that I have looked at.  James OATES did not die until 1868 so should appear somewhere!!  They were drysalters and then soap makers.  James father was Henry Fossett OATES.

I am desperate!!
