I am trying to foind a Walter Sargent living in Marshchapel (Possibly Somercotes) during the 1861 and 1871 Census. His parents 'may' have been Thomas and Sarah Sargent..Thank you for your help..

Hi
I have the 1871 census with Thomas and Sarah Sargent living in Marsh Chapel, Lincs with their children, but no Walter. Would you like the entry anyway?
There is no Walter Sargent on the 1871 that could be him, what year was he born?

Thanks for your nice comments about Bekah, she is beautiful isn't she? We're quite proud of her, she's our first and only grandchild at the moment, she's just turned 2 and a half.

Hi Chewbaccy
I've just searched all the census returns up to 1901 and can't find a match for your Walter, none born or living in Somercoates or Marsh Chaple. I'm just going to give the BMD Indexes a look before I give up on him!

Hi Chewbaccy
Sorry its me again, but i think I've found him on the 1901, if it is him I think he's the son of WILLIAM EVISON SARGENT (aged 15 in 1871 census) heres the transcript

What do you think?
Here's a birth record that would tally with this Walter
BIRTHS December Quarter 1898 Louth District Lincs
Volume 7a Page 584 - WALTER SARGENT
Louth District does cover Marsh Chaple, I just checked,
Any help?

My ancestors are Marshchapel Sargents (many spellings) and I have a substantial spreadsheet database of all that I could find in Marshchapel parish records, all Censuses (inc all these posts), IGI etc covering all nearby villages too. Happy to share.

I've just read all your comments and findings, my Grandfather was Walter Jack Sargent born in Louth, Lincolnshire Sept 26th 1898
His parents were Joseph Sargent & Susan née Lancaster
Walter had 7 siblings, 5 older males and the youngest a female
Would love to hear more info on our family. We visited the church graveyard at Marshchapel last week and found numerous ancestral headstones
I also have pictures from our " family bible" with DOBs; Deaths & Marriages
