1861 & 1871 Census - look up please
« on: Tuesday 05 July 11 18:32 BST (UK) »
Hello, I am trying to find George and Lucy Tomlinson on the 1861 and 1871 Census. George was born about 1807 and Lucy about 1830. I believe they may have lived in Birmingham area.
Many thanks.

First wife was Juda, as shown in the 1851 census of Kings Heath / Norton ..

HO107/Piece: 2048 Folio: 73 Page: 25 @ Kings Heath
 
George Tomlinson 39 Head born Birmingham: Fire Iron Manufacturer
Juda (could be Julia) Tomlinson 37 Wife Worcs, Yardley
George Dean Tomlinson 10 son (suspect the age could be 16, based on the 6 year old in the 1841 census)
Edwin C Tomlinson 11 son
Ellen Julia Tomlinson 8 dau
Louisa Sophia Tomlinson 6 dau
Francis Tomlinson 1 son

Frances Smith 18 Servant


She's Judy in the 1841 census - and the oldest child (George) was born c1835, so you wont find a GRO wedding for the couple.


HO107 / Piece 1197 / Book: 21 Civil Parish: Kings Norton Folio: 35; Page: 4


Next door is a Charles & Judith DEAN (Fire Iron trade too) - so its odds on that Judy was a Dean, given the name they gave the son seen in 1851 ....


There you go - altho they mistranscribed poor old George.

Groom's Name: George Tomkinson

Bride's Name: Judy Dean

Marriage Date: 20 May 1833
Marriage Place: Kings Norton, Worcester


Deaths Dec 1853   
 
Tomlinson  Judith    K. Norton  6c 252



and the second marriage to Lucy (as supported by CaroleW's 1861 family)

Marriages Dec 1858 
 
Nasan  Lucy Sharpe     Kings N  6c 771   
Tomlinson  George     Kings N  6c 771
