Can you see an entry on the 1871 census for Emma Shepherd?? Is she living in the same street as "John Sharpe" in Glanford Brigg??

But she gives her place of birth as Faldingworth, Lincolnshire and there is an Emma Shephard with parents in Faldingworth in 1841 and 1851(HO107/2106 folio 55 pg 14) and your Emma is with her parents in North Muskham, Notts. So would appear to be a different Emma.

Hi can anyone see any info on William Shepherd born c1768 north muskham, who married an Elizabeth Brown born c1780 north muskham? Their son was Thomas Shepherd born 1800 north muskham. He married a Charlotte Ellis born c1802 nottingham. Thomas was Georges dad. What Im after is any siblings of Thomas Shepherd and his father William Shepherd.

Also, with regard to Christopher Shepherd, could Shepherd have been spelt another way? Or is there a death record for him?
Help!!!

I did look for a death reg for Christopher, but without success. I searched on Shep*d, so should have caught any variations. Nothing showing up in Nottinghamshire and, as there are no ages given on the index until late 1860s, finding registrations in other counties is guesswork.
Could he have emigrated?
Had a look on the IGI for any Shepherd entries in North Muskham - nothing that seems to match your family in the extracted records. I did find the baptism for Elizabeth dau of Thomas & Charlotte Sheppard 25/12/1829 in Norwell. Also in Norwell, possibles for Charlotte Charlotte Knight dau of William & Catherine bp 3/6/1807 Charlotte Shaw dau of Francis & Mary bp 26/5/1805

Thanks Osprey, you've been a big help in this...... 
Of course there is a possibility he died in prison, or he changed his name.......how would we find out if he had died in prison? York gaol would be the favourate??

Hi yes I have narrowed it down to 3 Christpher Shepherds in york,1847, 1852, and 1859 but without actually getting the certificates Its only a guess. Would it actually say he had died in york jail on the death cert? Or would it just have the district of york down?

Sorry, never had a death cert where the person died in prison, but I would think it would say in the gaol or at least have the street address. I can rule out the 1847 one for you as he's on the 1851 census.

He's with his parents in North Muskham in 1851 - reply number 34. Have you looked through the full GRO death index to see if there's a more likely death registration for him in Nottighamshire?

Have found out that the William Sheppard who's children you found was actually the son of another family and not the Shepherd family I was looking for. Theres a lady on the genes site who has the parents of that William Sheppard and they are Thomas and Margeret, not Thomas and Charlotte, so there must have been quite a few Sheppards about in North Muskham at that time!!! How confusing!! 
Anyway, if you find anymore info on any of the census for any of Georges brothers and sisters let me know. I would be most grateful.
Thanks
