Help with 1841 census
« on: Saturday 04 September 10 08:58 BST (UK) »
Hi I'm looking for a Mahala Watts born 1826 Wiltshire.

Hi Tad

I think that your Mahala was probably at West Street, Warminster in 1841 - a femal servant to the Black family, age 15.

Hi  Dazey    Thank you for that  :)
 Would it be hard to see if her father and mother are near by John Watts born abt 1800  he was a Farmer when she married in 1851
