Census 1861 lookup

[dutch missmarple]

Hi all,

Would like to know if Emma Hobbs married a Thomas Slemen or a Thomas Ludlam in 1855, Tonbridge 2a 421.
Emma was born about 1832 Portsea Hampshire. 1851 she was in Tonbridge with parents and siblings.
Census 1861 should reveal which Thomas it was.
The other Thomas married a Martha Susan Robb (Tonbridge 2a 421).

If you find her could anyone please send me then also the details of the other censuses (1871 and up).

Thank you!!

It appears to be Thomas Sleman on the 1871. The 1861 lists it as Sloman. this is the 1871 entryS
Kemp Town Brighton, 4 St James Street

Thomas Sleman Hd M 42 Woollen draper  Tunbridge Kent
Emma Sleman    W  M  38                         Portsmouth Hants
Lucy Hobbs Niece         12                        Whitstable Kent
The rest are servnts who seem to work for Thomas as assistants.
Having checked the 1881 they appear to have one son called Edgar who was 10 in 1881 and recorded as being born in Hampshire

Hope this helps
Karen

You can also double check marriages in the current Kent registration districts on the Kent BMD site where there is a unique reference number per couple:

Hi betty,

You were right is was Mary Augusta not May.
Founf the marriage in 1858 in Tunbridge.
Census 1861 of Charles Hobbs and Mary Augusta was that the census of Seasalter?

Thanks for all the information so far!
