1841 and 1851 census lookup please
« on: Thursday 22 June 06 02:24 BST (UK) »

Hi!

I would appreciate help to find the census records for the family of Joseph Highmore, who was born in Dearham on the 14th May 1835.

Unfortunately I can't offer any other information about his family.

Thanks.

Hi Debbie!

This information is just wonderful...thank you so much.

I would appreciate, if you had the time, your help to follow the family through other censuses.

Hi Elsie,

Here they are again.

1861  RG9/3943 Folio 36 Page 18

Dearham, Row Moor?

Joseph HIGHMOORE, Head, Mar, 25, Coal Miner, born Dearham
Ann HIGHMOORE, Wife, Mar 23, born Cockermouth
John ARMSTRONG, Son, 3, Born Cockermouth


1871 RG10/5245 Folio 24 Page 5

Flimby Village, Flimby, Cumberland

Joseph HIGHMORE, Head, Mar, 35, Coal Miner, born Dearham
Ann HIGHMORE, Wife, Mar, 33, born Cockermouth
John ARMSTRONG, Son, 13, Driver in Coal Mine, born Cockermouth
Joseph HIGHMORE, Son, 7, Scholar, born Flimby
Thomas HIGHMORE, Son, 6, Scholar, born Flimby
Charles W HIGHMORE, Son, 3, born Flimby


1881 RG11/5179 Folio 109 Page 55

Flimby Green, Flimby, Cumberland

All are HIGHMORE

Joseph, Head, Mar, 45, Coal Miner, born Dearham
Ann, Wife, Mar, 43 born CMouth [sic]
Joseph, Son, 17, Brick Moulder, born Flimby
Thomas, Son, 16, Joiner, born Flimby
William, Son, 13, Scholar, born Flimby
Sarah A, Daur, 5 born Pegswood, Northumberland

Did any of this family stay in England or did they all come to Australia?  (I'm assuming this is the Ann Armstrong you are looking for on another post).  I can keep looking for some or all in England if you'd like.

Dearham, Row Moor?

I think it's Row Moor as there is a Row Hall and a Row Brow close to Dearham.  Pity  Sad  the possibility of the HIGHMOREs living at Low Moor appealed to me  Wink

On this sunny Australian afternoon, hi!  Smiley Smiley

Back on the trail of the Highmore's...

Would appreciate help with the 1861 census data for Joseph Highmore, his wife Sarah and their family.

In the 1851 census Joseph is 47 years of age and Sarah 40 and living in Dearham. I have now learnt both were still alive in 1861 and would like to track them and identify any children still living at home.

They also had two sons, Thomas and William, who were 20 and 18 in the 1851 census. Is it possible to find them on later censuses also please?  Huh

Ever grateful for your assistance

Elsie

Cheers

Hi Elsie,

Back to your Highmore's once again!!  I vaguely remember looking for this family last time.

I've just had a very quick look and think I have found Thomas in 1861, but will have to have a double check later.  Joseph and Sarah seem to be evading me at the moment.

I, unfortunately, have to do some work now (can't complain too much, have just had 2 weeks in New Zealand), but will have another look for you in the next couple of days.

Hello!

Yes, you have helped me before and it has been very much appreciated.

I can be patient.

New Zealand...a great place to have a holiday. "Honeymooned" there many moons ago! Memories!!!

Cheers

Hi Elsie,

I've managed to find a few bits and pieces for you.  Joseph and Sarah are still evading me in 1861. I will have another look next week for you.

What I have found is:

1861 RG9/3941 Folio 6, Page 8

Village of Flimby, Flimby, Cumberland

Thomas Highmoor, Head, Mar, 30, Coal Miner, born Dearham
Mary Highmoor, Wife, Mar, 30, born Brigham
C. A. Highmoor, Daur, 4, Scholar, born Flimby
Sarah Highmoor, Daur, 1, born Flimby

I also have them in 1871 and 1881, but my phone at work has just gone crazy, so I have to get those sorted out before I go home.  Will get them to you on Monday.

Think I also have Isabella and Mary in 1861.  Will get that to you next week as well.

Have a great weekend.

Debbie
