Topic: Lookup Request -1851 Census for Swift in Shropshire
« on: Saturday 04 September 04 22:19 BST (UK) »

Trying to trace the history of Joseph Swift born about 1798 in Wellington Shropshire.

I have been able to gather some 1851 data, but what I am really looking for is who else lived with the following (some other 1851 census tidbits):

Phoebe Swift - 55 - Wellington Salop piece no 1997 folio 456
Joseph Swift - 53 - Wellington Salop piece no 1997 folio 456
Joseph Jnr - 15 - Wellington Salop piece no 1997 folio 456

If there is some nice soul to help, I would like to see if anyone else lived with this family, and any detail where they lived or did.

Thanks.

Hi Bill

I'm afraid I can't help you with the 1851 info but we have a similar interest.

Joseph Swift's brother, William (1792) was the father of Eliza Swift (1822) who married John Mitton (1815). They were my 3xG Grandparents.

I do have some info on Joseph and Phoebe's children, if you would like it let me know

Hi yonderpeasant

I don't suppose there are any other Swifts in Wellington? I will post a new topic with the details. If you would be able to check that would be great.

Thanks
