1851 Census « on: Monday 30 August 04 15:31 BST (UK) »
I see there is a 1851 census now available from Maxwell's. Does anybody have this and is it worth purchasing. I am looking for information regarding Davidson's. Thanks

I noticed you are also researching MORREYS of OXFORDSHIRE. Wondering if we have ancestors in common??? John Morrey b 1803 at Bodicote married Mary Leach 1854 at Banbury where John was the Innkeeper of the Ship Inn. Son John George b 13Dec1854 at Banbury. He married Mary Eliza HORWOOD 10Jun1879. Soon after John and Mary Eliza moved to Australia - details of ship not known at this stage - The family lived in Western Australia for a few years in the early 1990s but mostly lived in Victoria. They had four children - Ethel Mary b 1880 died 11Jan1900 in Perth aged nearly 20 years. Mabel Frances b 1882 married John Henry Teather George and Norman William b 1887 - he is my friend's grandfather. Norman married Ethel Elizabeth Bailey 24Mar1910 at Prahran in Melbourne and son Graeme William MORREY 'Bill' was born 24Jun1923 (my friend's father). Hoping there is a connection here Regards Vicki
