1841 census lookup please FRANCIS
« on: Thursday 07 February 08 23:32 GMT (UK) »
Hi folks,

Am hoping to find 1841 census entry for an Edward Francis and wife Mary.
Edward was born about 1815 Oxford

They had a daughter Sarah Ann around this time so she may or may not be there too.

Thanks in advance,

Lilygirl.

Hi
Not certain that this is your edward but there did only appear to be one listed.
HO107 Piece 874 Book 9, Folio 25 page 4
Civil Parish of Sonning, Oxfordshire

Edward Francis 25 Ag Lab
James Francis 25
Joseph Francis 20
Mary Francis 20
Sarah Francis 1

Unfortunately not possible to tell who the parents of Sarah were.

They are actually listed on the census as;

Edward
Mary
James
Joseph
Sarah

An assumption that Edward and Mary are married ?

They are living in "Sonning Common" just down the road from Bishop Wood Farm (on modern maps I can find Bishopsland Farm).  If this equates to the modern Sonning Common, then the birth may possibly be listed in the Rotherfield Peppard PR.

Edit - not in the Rotherfield Peppard PR and the Sonning PR transcription currently ends in 1836 (courtesy of OFHS).
