Look-up PLZ 1851 Census

[Ken_from_Wisbech]

Hi All

I am having a spot of bothere with the 1851 census, so looking for some help PLZ.  Here goes

Looking for MARY BRAUN formerly (KEMP), born abt 1818, poss Pembrokeshire.

Address I have is 21 Colchester Street, St. Olave.

Children I have are: 
William Bn. Southwark 1837
Emily Eliza Bn Liverpool 1840
Mary Ann Bn Liverpool 1844
Miriam Frances Bn Mile End, London, 1848
Harriett Bn Stepney 1850

She seems to have been living with a Jonaton Budgeon and his children at the time of the census and married said Jonathon in 1858.

Her first husband was John James Braun and their name was registered as Bryan on the 1841 Census for West Derby, Liverpool and he 'seems' to have died or disappeared sometime between the 1841-51 Census

I know it's a long shot, but would really appreciate some help.

Many thanks

Ken

Hi Barbara

Many thanks for your help.  Yet another name for this family!!!!  Braun/Bryan/Braun/Bennie - I wonder where the bennie name came from, but could have been a transcription error.

I have been trying to find a record of John Braun's death but so far have not had any luch.  I do believe that there may have been an epidemic going around and it has been suggested that he went back to Switzerland and died there.

At least I have something else to go on.  I have been unable to use the 1851 Census on FindMyPast (1837 Online) as it is not available at present.

Once again, many thanks

Could this be the death for John James BRAUN.    

John James BROWN
Mar ¼ 1850  Bethnal Green  2  41

I checked the 1861 census & dound that Jonathan Budgeon, husband of Mary Braun, was born in TunbridgeWells. confirming the 1851 census found by Barabra.

I wonder where the bennie name came from, but could have been a transcription error.

As I said, there has been an amendment made on ancestry, as it was a transcription error.  If you have access you can contact the person who made the amendment, they may be researching the family

Well done Meliora

Many thanks Meliora.  Yet another name change!  But it does tie in.  Looks like I'll have to send away for a cert.

Many thanks  for the help

I'd ask the GRO to check the cert for known details before parting with your cash, it costs £3 for a reference check which is included in the £7 fee if the details are correct

Many thanks for the tip, Barbara.  Do I just phone them and ask what details are on the cert - never done that before
