Sampson HARRIS
« on: Tuesday 12 April 05 19:39 BST (UK) »
I am trying to find Sampson HARRIS in the 1851 and 1861 census.  In 51 he would have been approx 2yrs old, mother Charlotte father also Sampson but in the Royal Navy and so possibly not there.  Little Sampson had been born in Woolwich Dock yard in 1849.  By 1861 his mother had died in Sheerness and his father had remarried in Tavistock and although I have Sampson the elder with new wife and Sampson the youngers brother and sister there is no sign of him!  I would be grateful if someone could find him for me, maybe in the navy?
