1871 Lookup Please. Completed
« on: Wednesday 24 November 10 11:30 GMT (UK) »
Hi to all.
Is it possible to have a check of the 1871 Census Please for a South Family in Barking or Romford Reg. 
Not sure of the Parents names, but possible children should be, William James 1861, Henry John 1864, George Henry 1868, plus others.  The Family seems to vanish later!
With thanks,
  Curley. :)

Many Thanks Mort29 for the 'Extended' lookup.
I think it is the family, but the disappearing act prevents some correlation in 1881 [ were i couldn't find them ], and you in 1891.
I think i will have to send for the Birth Cert' for my one certain Child, Henry John South, Reg' birth JuneQ 1864 Romford, who is missing also in 1881, but married in Surrey in 1891.
Could you please have a quick check for him in Essex in the 1871 Census.
With thanks again,
   Curley. :)

I think i will have to send for the Birth Cert' for my one certain Child, Henry John South, Reg' birth JuneQ 1864 Romford,

Sorry - can't find that birth?
Neither can I find the 1891 marriage.

Are you absolutely sure of your facts here?


Ignore that - found the birth of John Henry South in Romford, 1864 June qtr.
However, there is a death for John Henry South in Romford, December qtr 1864.

Obviously not your man.

Many thanks to you KGarrad for your extended Lookup.
It's pretty certain that i should send off for Certificates to Nail this one, but by way of courtesy i should briefly explain the background.
Henry John South was the Grandfather of a recently deceased connection here in Australia, and the family have his DOB [ passed down over years], as the 11th of April 1864, and they say without a Cert', that he was born in Barking, where the family lived for many, many, years, at 26 Perth Road.    I looked in 1881 by Address, and couldn't bring it up, so i assumed it wasn't built then, but with the BMD record for JuneQ 1864, it seemed that this was him [ although i didn't check for a death], as you found.
His marriage to Emily Sarah Starke, on the 13 th of October 1889 at St Olave, i have confirmed, as well as children born 1891, etc, etc [ also Reg' at St Olave].
The only other H J S i could find in 1881 with dates fit,  was in Hertfordshire, but he stayed there.
The wife of the above Grandson is 89, and naturally some memories can be a little distorted, although the Address is confirmed, but with later years.
A Marriage Certificate seems to be the best bet, as in the case of the Birth, i cannot confirm 100 % where it was.
With sincere thanks again to you and Mort29 for your help.
