Having a lot of trouble trying to find Elisabeth Hubbard in the 1841 census.  She would have been 17 yrs.  and out working; but I wonder where?   She is not at home with her father George and mother Lucy.  They still had 5 children aged 12, 6, 5, 3, and 14 months.  She must have been working as a f.servant somewhere.  Would like to find her.  Any help really appreciated.

There's a Betsy Hubbard aged 15 recorded as a FS with the Millen or Hillen family in Alderton. Could this be her - remembering that ages were rounded down. It's not far away from her family

Not knowing the area well, (well at all), then it could be.  I wonder.  Good find.  I woinder if you know how far Alderton would be from the Bawdsey?  I think it is East Street the family were living in.  I'll check google maps too.

Just checked...Betsy is an old derivitive used for Elizabeth.  Could be her.

And I have just checked where Alderton is.  Absolutely not far at all.
