1841 Census William Wills
« on: Saturday 22 April 06 16:27 BST (UK) »

I hope someone can help.
William Wills was born in Orton in 1820.
By 1849 he was in Weardale where he married.
I am interested to know if he was still in Westmorland in 1841, and if so,
is there any further informaton regarding his family.
Thanks!

Sorry, was meant to ask for his Parents names.

Do you know what his occupation was?

Hi Sue,
Williams' occupation is given as a Labourer on the marriage certificate.
His father's name was Joseph - occupation Mason.
I am not 100% sure but I think his mother's name was Margaret.

Thanks for that Sue,
I agree that it could well be his parents, the names certainly match and the ages are roughly what I would expect.
As for William, he might have moved from the area by 1841.

Thanks again
