1871 census - STEVENS
« on: Tuesday 06 September 05 00:57 BST (UK) »
I am looking for the following family in the 1871 census in the London/Middlesex area:
George STEVENS born c1822 Drewsteignton, Devon
Elizabeth STEVENS born c1825 Drewsteignton
Elizabeth STEVENS born c1850 London
William George STEVENS born c1853 Chichester, Sussex
James Henry born c1858 London
Arthur Ernest STEVENS born c1861 London

I have their details from the 1861 census and for William George and Arthur Ernest in  the 1881 census. William George has been located in the 1871 census. Parents are missing in the 1881 census so I am presuming they are dead.

I am particularly interested in locating Arthur Ernest STEVENS who should be shown as age 9 in the 1871 census. Oral family interest indicates he may have attended a 'Blue Coat' or similar school. It could therefore be possible he is shown in the 1871 census as being at a boarding school and therefore may only be listed with his initials. I don't know if the parents are alive or dead at the 1871 census.

Also interested in Eva PAYNE born c1851 Southsea, Hampshire who married William George STEVENS.

Thanks
