Elusive man!!!
« on: Friday 16 April 04 03:25 BST (UK) »

I am searching for HENRY PRICE  born 1846 in Folkestone Kent.
I have his details from his marriage to Emily Shirley in 1866 onwards but would like to know his ancestry.

                  Any help very welcome

There is an 1851 census index for Folkstone at the Kent Lookup exchange. Let's hope his family stayed put. Read the instructions before submitting requests (as always!)

Hi! Melody

Can add more mystery to your man, that is if it is the one you are looking for.  You say he married Emily in 1866, this is a family I found on the 1881 census Henry is married to an Emily and he was born Folkstone in Kent.

They are living at Highfield Road, Steads Buildings, Hemsworth, York

Henry            Age 36     B. Folkstone      Coal Miner
Emily             Age 36     B. Lichfield
Charles         Age 18     B. Lichfield         Pony Driver in Pit
Mary Ann       Age 14     B. Lichfield
Alice              Age 12     B. Standbridge     Scholar
Harry            Age 10      B. Cotham, York   Scholar
Herbert Wm. Age 8       B. Rosedale Abby, York   Scholar
Enoch            Age 7       B. Prolton,Cleveland       Scholar
Gabriel           Age 1      B. Fairburn, York
Edward          Age 2M   B. Hemsworth

You will find this on the 1881 census on the follwoing site

Hi Melody,
I've had a look for him in 1861, but can't find him. Only Price born Folkestone of the right age is a William Price 14 Iron brazier living in Wolverhampton Staffs. His father is Henry a carter, mother Sarah. Happy to post full details if this could be your man, particularly as Lichfield is in Staffs. Did he have a middle name  ??? :-\  Jan ;)
