1871 census look up request
« on: Monday 19 June 17 23:14 BST (UK) »
Hi,
I hope someone can help with this query.
I'm sorry it's vague as the only info I've got is the info on the flyleaf of a book I've inherited.
I'm looking for a H.C de Hersant-sex unknown,but he or she is of school age.
The book in question was a prize for punctuality in the midsummer of 1872 at the North London Collegiate School(I don't think it's the famous girls school as it has a headmasters name ,Chas.Wm. Williams DD.F.R.A.S. inscribed at the bottom of the page and not that of the girls school Headmistress of the time, Frances Buss).
If anyone can give me the slightest info on Mr or Miss de Hersant I'ld be very grateful.
Many thanks,
Trisha. :) :) :)

Not the census, but how about this, any good? From UK, Naturalisation Certificates and Declarations, 1870-1916


Henry Charles Di Hersant
Age:   17
Record Type:   Certificate
Birth Date:   abt 1859
Residence Place:   Nottingham, England
Certificate Date:   17 Oct 1876
Certificate Place:   London, England

Looks as if that is his father? Jean Fidele Di Hersant, a French subject living at 6 Upper College St, Nottingham, aged 76 married with 2 children under age, Henry 17 and Katherine 19 who is applying for naturalisation.

He can be traced quite easily through the later censuses.

Well spotted Maureen, that's the right family. Looks as if the family were quite well off.
