« on: Wednesday 27 April 05 21:34 BST (UK) »
Hi,
Can anyone have a look for Jane Emery b. about 1835 in Paulton, Somerset on either 1841 or 1851 census?
Thanks

Hi Kim,

There are a few Emerys in Paulton on the 1851 census transcription.
The following is maybe the one that you want as it includes a Jane.

EMERY Joshua 55 Coal Haulier Ashwick
Sarah 54 Paulton, Som.
Jeremiah 31 Coal Miner. Paulton, Som.
George 25 Coal Miner. Paulton, Som.
Joseph 18 Coal Miner. Paulton, Som.
Ann 12 Scholar Paulton, Som.
Jane 10 Scholar Paulton, Som.

Hope this helps.

Hi 1(Excuse the informality)
Could be what I'm after, but this Jane is a little young.
Thanks

Hi Kim,

The age doesn't necessarily mean that this is not your Jane, below is a quote from the Genuki census website.

Quote, "The 1841 census is the first useful genealogical census for England & Wales. You will see that no relationships are given - except occasionally in column 5 where you may see Farmer's Wife or similar. All ages 15 and above should have been rounded down to the nearest 5 year multiple, i.e. ages shown as 15 may be 15-19, ages shown as 20 may be 20-24, etc. Another point to remember for ages is that people often said that they "were in their 60th year" meaning that they had passed their 59th birthday. If a person gave information meaning they were in their 60th year, they will be shown as being 60, whereas strictly keeping to the rules, they should be recorded as 55".

So you see that they used to round ages down, I am afraid that genealogy is not an exact science.
So don,t give up hope of this one being the right one.
Hope this is helpful.

Mick

Thanks krisesjoint,
I've managed to confirm that Matthew was Jane's dad, but couldn't find Jane. This and the info from 1841 seem to back up the bits of info that I'd found.
Thanks again,
Kim

Hi Kris,
I've been looking more closely at this info. Matthew only seems to have aged a year from 1841 to 1851! Is this a typo or are they not the same family? Could you double check for me please?
Thanks
