1861 / 1871 LOOKUPS PSE - WILLIAM SHOTTON

[jean.rob]

Hi
Is anyone able to assist with 1861 & 1871 census lookups please.
William SHOTTON b c1819 Sherifhales, Staffs
Elizabeth SHOTTON b c1819 ditto
Samuel SHOTTON b c1860 Gnosall, Stafford
Herbert SHOTTON b c1861 ditto

I have this family in 1881 and 1891 but cannot find them in earlier censuses.

Am particularly trying to trace an Albert SHOTTON b c1882 shown with this family in 1891 as Grandson.

Any help appreciated.

JEAN
