I linked to the previous topic at reply #8. Lots of risk of duplication here.


Thank you. I agree, I thought this look up would be simple which is why I didn't put it on the original Walker one. That might have been a mistake  :-\

Yes - don’t worry about it but generally it is best to keep related queries on one thread (or, if there is a  good reason to open up a new thread on a different board, provide a link to the original one right at the start) to help those helping you. Any census lookup requires basic information not just as to names but also rough birthdates and birthplaces if known - often the best source for this is another census which is already known about. If Rootschatters don’t realise relevant contextual information has already been found elsewhere, they will spend unnecessary time and effort hunting for it.
