1841/51 Census lookup for BROWN please
« on: Monday 21 November 05 09:58 GMT (UK) »
Hello,
Could I please have a look up for the Brown family living in Wilton on either the 1841 or 1851 ?  I am trying to find George Brown's family, he gives his place of birth as Wilton, Wilts.
Thank you
Michelle

Hi Michelle,

                  Are you expecting George to be with a family or are you just looking to see what families are there? There is no George Brown in either census in Wilton....in 1851 there is a George in Dorset claiming birth in Wilton but he is ages 65 so assuming not likely......sorry Kris  :'(

Hello Kris,
Thank you very much for looking for me.
 I am indeed trying to find the family of George Brown who is in Dorset in 1851.  I had thought he was born in Winterborne Kingston as that is what it said on the transcribed 1851 census that I have. I was then told  that on the census it says Wilton Wilts.  I found 2 Wiltons on the map, 1 near Salisbury and the other nr Burbage.  I thought that if I could find out which village had Brown's on the census it might point to the right village to look in for George's birth.  George is my ggg grandfather so I would really like to find his baptism if I can.
Thanks
Michelle :D

Thank you for the census details.
 Does it give any hint of which Wilton it is?  Or maybe the Wilton nr Burbage was to small to be a Parish in it's own right and is joined with another village.
Thank you very much for your help.
