1851/61/71 - Smith - Towcester

[wamwig]

I know, but it is surely too much of a coincidence.  I'll get that one anyway, but with the GRO's usual speed it could be a while  

So the Sept qtr is July, Aug and Sept, which puts it in the right timeframe. I think we might be getting somewhere

But the 1841 census was taken in  June.

Right - sorry for confusing even more

Could well be if there are no others, age is slightly out, was there no one else at the address, presumably the 'husband' was absent?

Mary is correct in the 1841 Census information so here is a bit more

Thats a bit of a coincidence as well isnt it, I wonder if that is my mans father. Can anybody see if they turn up in later census. On my mans 1877 marriage cert he gives his father as Samuel West Smith (deceased, but presumably he would not have known this for sure). pity I'm not famous as this would probably have made great tv, ha ha.

Sandy

Not surprised you gave up, I nearly have several times, but at last I think we are getting towards the end! maybe

Hi all

Well we are in danger of going off on rather a tangent here, but then again it is all related I suppose and it is my thread after all, just wondered if either Samuel or Frances made it onto the 1861 or later census?

The West connection is interesting, pity there is no way of finding out if they were related to the Smiths at all, and wonder why Samuel and Frances moved to London, presumably leaving young Samuel in the workhouse. Perhaps what happened in later years is a little more understandable now.
