Hi all,
Thanks, but no luck, methinks. Eliza Kight is 14 in the 1871 census and shown as born in Bethnal Green. Her elder sister, Harriet is 16 and born in Shoreditch. Parents are George Kight and Harriet aged 40 and 39 respectively. I reckon they are about and will search these census at some stage, but they are hard work.
The weynberg, I found as Weineberg on the 1871, and just show as born in Middlesex, bur are in Bell Lane, Whitechapel in 1871, I think the civil parish of Christchurch. Parents are born in Holland, as are some of the eldest children.
The story goes as this, at the Havering Town show, we were running a charity stand and occasional people came and researched their family history on some computers we had set up in the middle of a field. It was intriguing how few people were aware of the 1881 census, and a lady with her mum was devouring the 1881 census and everything that she could find.
Since then, I have found the 1871,1891 and 1901 entries and posted these on, and desperately trying to find the 1861 entries. It took a few attempts due to a hotmail a/c mailbox being full, so she created a new email a/c elsewhere, just for this.
I was impressed by a complete thirst for knowledge that was so obvious in their search, and enjoy doing this for a hobby anyway - perhaps I will make some money out of it in my retirement! (A long way off).
I think a definite new researcher who will be reading this tomorrow, and probably a regular poster.
That'e enough of me spouting on.
Thanks again to everyone.
Best
Kevan
