These may or may not be connected to your family but the first is interesting.

1851 census index Bethnal green
HO 107/1540 folio 85
Henry Leadbitter age 39 born City of London

1851 census index Whitechapel
HO 107/1546 folio 59
Ellen Leadbeater age 25
James Leadbeater age 1
George age 3
Matthew age 37

1851 surname only index Shoreditch
HO 107/1536 folio534
Leadbetter

Someone will look up the actual census for you but they may be busy at this time of year.  If no-one does the lookup within a couple of weeks then ask again quoting the name and reference.

It may be a good idea next time to list the children you know as well as ages and places of birth.  All information is helpful to people doing look ups.

still havn't found much I located his wife on the 1851 census in clerkenwell, but no one has checked 61 or 71 as yet. as for henry I think he may have died 1857 as he was a messenger and I found a henry w leadbitter who was a messenger to the Royal Exchange Assurance Cornhill of City of London, his daughters marriage cert state her father as a messenger. if this is any help. as for his wife I have no idea as to her whereabouts

Hi Manga,
Just had a look at 1871 for your Maria - would you believe the results come back with no exact matches as to age and location, but give 2,716 to go through - couldn't even find John Wheeler Leadbitter/or variations.
Not all of the 1871 is online yet so could still turn up somewhere and there are only partial indexes so far for 1861.
Will watch as I trawl through and let you know if I see any of them.

Hello

I'm doing a bit of housekeeping and notice this rather old request.  Are you still looking for this information?  If so can you be specific about which lookups you're still seeking ...

Regards
Jonathan
