Hi, I'm looking for a William Maxfield b.1842 in Newark. I'm trying to find his parents and am hoping they'll be listed on either the 1851 or 61 census. I have some later info on him if this helps:
Lived most of life in Worksop. He came off a wealthy family but for some reason he was disgraced and disowned by the whole family. In 1881 William and his family lived at 19 Netherton Road, Worksop. He was a joiner and was married to Harriet b.1848 - had 6 children. Thanks very much for your help Alison
Thomas Levick 28 Worksop, Nottinghamshire, England Boarder Radford and Worksop Nottinghamshire Rebecca Machin 29 Worksop, Nottinghamshire, England Visitor Radford and Worksop Nottinghamshire Eliza Maxfield 2 Worksop, Nottinghamshire, England Daughter Radford and Worksop Nottinghamshire Harriett Maxfield 23 Worksop, Nottinghamshire, England Wife Radford and Worksop Nottinghamshire William Maxfield 29 Newark, Nottinghamshire, England Head Radford and Worksop Nottinghamshire William Maxfield 4 Sheffield, Yorkshire, England Son Radford and Worksop Nottinghamshire Reuben Pearson 31 Worksop, Nottinghamshire, England Brother-in-law Radford and Worksop Nottinghamshire
And here are the Maxfields assoc with Newark.
1871 Census
Eliza Maxfield 26 Newark, Nottinghamshire, England Servant Weston Nottinghamshire
Elizabeth Maxfield 66 Newark, Nottinghamshire, England Head Newark Nottinghamshire Thomas P Maxfield 9 Winkburn, Nottinghamshire, England Grandson Newark Nottinghamshire
So it looks as though there is not much family to have disowned him.
Elizabeth & Thomas's address is 94 Mill Gate.
