Are they living in Lilleshall in 1851/61/71?

That seems possible. The camps they were in were quite remote.

Had a bit of a look at Familysearch (LDS site) and came up with the following:
•   Marriage of Elizabeth DOODY to Richard JONES on 10(25) June 1849 at Wrockwardine-Wood, Shropshire (not far from Lilleshall). Her father’s name given as Thomas.
•   Birth/Christening of Elizabeth DOODY on 16 June 1822 at Lilleshall, Shropshire (a lot of Doodys there). Father Thomas and mother Mary.

Some of the ages given in the 1861 Census information obtained by Willow therefore look to be quite a bit out – especially for Elizabeth. For example, if she was 28 at the time of the Census then she would have been born circa 1833 and given birth to William when she was 11 years old!! Either we have got the wrong person or Elizabeth was fudging her age (considerably).

Hi Dennis/Willow

Family story here (Fiona's Mum, Jean) also confirms that WH left the family home to work on the Settle railway because he did not get on with his stepfather (not stepmother). Would tie in with the information from the 1851 census obtained earlier by Willow.

Cavan / 1821 Census - Malone/McQuillan - COMPLETED
« on: Thursday 06 January 05 18:58 GMT (UK)  »
My great great grandparents James Malone (born circa 1808) and Elizabeth McQuillan (born Cootehill, circa 1809) went to Australia from Killinkere, Co. Cavan in 1840. I am hoping that the 1821 Census will throw-up information on them and their families.

Can anyone tell me how to get access to that Census?
