Cranfield
« on: Wednesday 24 November 04 09:17 GMT (UK) »
I have a heap of my ancestors lived in Cranfield too, from 1800's all through back to early 1700's.  I have seen the parish registers on fiche and they give a lot of info.  One of the ministers of the Cof E church there put in info on occupations, which was a bonus.

Have you tried the 1881 census which is available online at www.familysearch.org ?

RG11/1636 folio 8
Cranfield
Susan Goff head unmarried 54 lacemaker born Cranfield
Eliza Goff niece unmarried 30 lace maker born Cranfield
Minnie E Goff grandniece 9 scholar b Bucks? Brill?
Arthur W Goff grandnephew 4 b Cranfield
Joseph Goff nephew 15 ag lab b Cranfield

It appears as though Arthur may have been the illegitimate son of Eliza.

In 1891 they were still living in Cranfield
Thomas G Harper head marr 43 farm lab
Eliza Harper wife 44 straw hat sewer
Arthur W Gough wife's son 14 errand boy
Susan Gough Wife's aunt single 65
All born Cranfield

Free BMD has a birth of Arthur William Gough in Ampthill registration district, which includes Cranfield, in the March quarter 1877 volume 3b page 403
http://freebmd.rootsweb.com/cgi/search.pl

If you order the certificate which can be done online it will show if a father is named.

Hope this helps

Regards
