1841 Census Lookup please - MARLOW
« on: Wednesday 30 August 06 14:12 BST (UK) »
Hello,

I am trying to trace a relative, and to see the names etc of other siblings:

Elizabeth Marlow born 1833 Offley, Herts. Could someone please try to find her in the 1841 Census. Her father I think was James or Robert. Sorry to be so vagued.

Many thanks for your help,

Best wishes,

David

Parents both 45, Mary 15, Sarah and Hannah 10 and Elizabeth 5 I'm sure you know that 1841 rounded to nearest 5

The IGI has.

Eliza b 01 MAY 1836   Offley - parents Robert & Avis

Elizabeth b 10 FEB 1833   Offley - Parents James & Susannah.


James and Susan/nah as parents seem the better bet if you are fairly certain that your Elizabeth was born in 1833.

HO107/445/12 - 11
Offley
Herts


MARLOW
(All born Herts)
James, 45, Ag Lab
Susan, 45
Mary, 15
Sarah, 10
Hannah, 10
Elizabeth, 5

spooky - the 2 girls ages as enumerated put them with the other parents !

Elizabeth aged 8 - viz b1833 - Robert and Aves

Elizabeth aged 5 - viz b1836 - James and Susannah


Ref 1841 age rounding-down - yes its the exceptions that prove the rule so as to speak - I frequently see adults with exact ages ...
