1861 Bristol Look Up
« on: Monday 31 December 07 05:05 GMT (UK) »

I'm trying to find Thomas Philip Tanswell, (born about 1835-39 in Bristol ) and his wife Mary Ann born 1838 in Pill/Easton in Gordano,  in the 1861 census.  I have them in subsequent ones, and also in 1851 before they were married.  It's just the 1861 I can't find.

There is a Thomas Taurwell b 1840 in Bristol - he may be the one.  The name is often transcribed incorrectly.  Could someone check this for me please?

Many thanks
Mary

This is the Thomas Taurwell info for 1861..... I can see why it is transcribed as Taurwell, but it could just as easily be Tanswell......

RG9/1703/10/14

Bedminster, Bristol Somerset, England
Somerset St

Thomas Taurwell 21  Head Engine Boiler Maker born Bristol, Somerset
Mary A Taurwell 21 Wife born Poll, Somerset
P H Tauswell 11 Mo  Son born Bristol, Somerset
Emma Sapping 70  Boarder Coatmaker born Poll, Somerset

Mary A was transcribed as being 71.
I've just re-checked the image, and yes....it is Pill, not Poll as transcribed. Not the easiest image to read, I am afraid.

Hi Dee

Many thanks for the look up.  It is the right Thomas.  The Emma (should be Lapping) is Mary Ann's sister, although her age should have been 20.  I guess this was a difficult image for the person who transcribed it.  I had no information on her other than her birth, so at least I know where she was in 1861. 

Best wishes for 2008

Hi Alli

Thanks for the information.  I didn't have the exact date of Thomas' birth and certainly didn't know they were Wesleyan Methodist - that's interesting.

Regards
