1841 Census - BANCROFT
« on: Monday 26 June 06 17:16 BST (UK) »

Could someone look up Thomas BANCROFT b abt. 1829 in Derby and give me what family details there may be? His father was also a Thomas BANCROFT. [The Thomas in question is on the 1881 census as living as son-in-law in William Chaplins household which I know to be true. He married Williams daughter Fanny Chaplin on 26 Feb 1849]

Thanks

Thanks,

It looks right as the fathers occupation was Tailor and Thomas the youngers age is about right. Any chance that you could check the 1851 census for me to find the newly married Thomas and Fanny?

Hello

1851 Census  St. Werburgh Derby
HO107/2143  Folio 774 Sch 16

15 Waterloo Street

Bancroft   Thomas    31    Taylor (Master)     Leicestershire
"             Fanny        20                                 Derby
"         Elizabeth        2 months                       "

Note the age has been transcribed as 31, however after close inspection of
the original sheet I think it is 21.  There is also a place of birth other than
Leicestershire but I am unable to read this.

Hope someone else will take a look and give an opinion.

Spendlove.

Many thanks!

They are the right people. I have a copy of Elizabeths Birth certificate which gives the informants name as Fanny Bancroft, 15 Waterloo Street. Thomas's birthplace is possibly Worthington?

Thomas Bancroft looks like age 31 and then altered to 21 -pretty sure it is 21
P.o.b. looks like Leicestershire G?ton ??ne (could it be Girton Lane??) Wi??idg??le?y
crossed out is Staffordshire Newcastle -
the person above (who is the lady next door!) has her p.o.b. crossed out and Staffordshire Newcastle written above the crossed out original entry
It seems the p.o.b. for "the lady next door" was entered for Thomas  and then altered accordingly

Looking again-with a clue!!
It reads
Leicestershire G??ton Lane Worthington Leics
Seems the Leics is entered twice - in full and then abbreviated.

Just for interest-1861 Thomas birth is transcribed as Lancashire Worthington -but image clearly reads Leicestershire Worthington

Hi,

I know that Thomas was 21 in 26/02/1849 from his Marriage certificate to Fanny CHAPLAIN. I'm glad that I now seem to have evidence of the Worthington connection too!

Many thanks to both of you,

David
