1851/1861 Yorkshire (Bradford?) request ROWNTREE
« on: Tuesday 10 August 04 09:23 BST (UK) »
I'm looking for any info on a Fred Rowntree, born 1849 (june qtr) in Bradford.

As i found out yesterday though, Rowntree may be spelled Roundtree (a problem that I'm still having these days).

Thanks

Bradford is a huge area to search is there anyway you can pin it down to a District?

I have the 1861 Census and would be more than willing to do a look up for you but i dont have a name index, so a district or better still an address would be very very helpful

I'm at work at the moment, when I get home I'll see if I have any other info.

The only thing I can tell you before I get home is that when he got married and had a family (c1869) I think he was living in bowling. Not 100% sure about this though.

The earliest info i have is from the 1881 census where the family are living in North Bierley. I know that they moved to Bowling after that, so Bowling is probably a no go.

This is all I know, the birth register only says Bradford and I haven't looked at the 1871 census yet.

I've gone through the whole of North Bierley and nothing i,m afraid.  If you could get someone to check the 1871 and maybe get a district from that i'd be happy to re look for you.

Sorry
