Can anyone help me find Thomas Lee the 1871 Preston census:
Thomas Lee born c 1863/4 Preston. Parents: Margaret and Jane.
I have access to ancestry.co.uk, but I think the 1871 census for Preston is missing the street I am looking for.
It is not this family. Parents James, Jane Thomas Lee b c1863
This is the person I am looking for in the 1881 census In 1881 Census at 38 Lady St, Preston (All Saints area) Michael Hanlon born c 1825 Waterford Ireland age 56 foundry labourer. Margaret Hanlon born Preston age 52, (born c 1829) * Thos Lee age 17, working as a foundry labourer, born Preston c 1864, Shown as the son of the above
Father James Lee may be dead before the 1871 census.

Thanks for that.
I think you have the correct one, I spent days searching by street on Hanlon & Lee
Never thought to try variation on spelling
Thanks

I believe the Fish St one is the same person as I know from old family stories that Margaret Hanlon was an ancestor married to a Lee, but I did no know which generation.
(I have also looked at Margaret Twiceaday but I don't think she is the same person, but like you I could not find a Marriage)
I am trying to find more info on James Lee if anyone can help
James Lee born before 1847 (probably around 1830) died after 1862 (probably before 1870) Married probably before 1864 Margaret ?? born 1829 (she later married Michael Hanlon) Child Thomas Lee born c 1863/4 (Probably Mar 63 – Feb 64, names James as his father on marriage certificate)
Margaret (Lee) Hanlon died in 1894 aged in her mid sixties. (Death entry: Margaret Hanlon born abt 1831, d 1894 Apr-May-Jun Preston 8e)
1891 census (05-Apr 1891) Living at 39 Malt Street, Preston Thomas Lee head age 27 general labourer, born c 1864 Jane wife age 28 cotton weaver, born c 1864 Margt Ellen dau age 6 scholar born c 1885 *William son age 3 born c 1888 Margaret Hanlon mother widow age 62 born c 1829 All born Preston
In 1881 census Living at at 38 Lady St, Preston Michael Hanlon, head, age 56 [born c 1825] Waterford Ireland, foundry labourer. Margaret Hanlon, wife, born Preston? age 52 b c 1829 * Thomas Lee age 17, son, foundry labourer, born Preston [c 1864] recorded as the son of the above
1871 Census Preston (Parish St Peters, district 52) No 6 Back of Fish St [This is a few hundred yards from Lady St] Michael Hanlon 45 Labourer in cotton mill b Ireland Margaret Hanlon 40 Cotton Weaver b Preston Thomas Hanlon 8 Scholar & Cotton Tenter b Preston
I think this is James Lee (James Lee born abt 1817 died 1867 Apr-May-Jun Preston)
But I am unsure which person he is the earlier censuses, the only candidate apppears to be this one but he married Mary Grimes, but lived in the next street to Fish st (Singleton Row is next Street to Craggs Row, then Fish St)
1841 Census, Preston [Possible c 46 years at Thomas’s Birth] Singleton Row (near Moor Lane) *James Lee 25 b c1816 Ann Whally 60 Mary Whally 25 Robt Whally 65 Robt Whally 3
1851 Census, Preston [Possible c 46 year old at Tom’s birth] [Possibly same as ref J4?] 73 Singleton Row Living as Lodgers in the Acers family household Ellen Lee 4 *James Lee 34 Handloom Weaver b Samlesbury c 1817 [Just ouside preston] Possibly same person as J4?
1861 Census, Preston [This person married Mary Grime in 1864] 1 Craggs Row (St Thomas area) *James Lee 44 Cotton Weaver b Preston c 1817 Mary Grime 43 Living as a lodger in Mary Grimes household, she has 8 children between 8 months to 20 years old
There is a Margaret Hanlon My best guess is she may be a sister of Michael Hanlon 1861 Preston Census: Margaret Hanlon age 23 Born Dundalk Ireland c 1838 unmarried (with her 2 sisters as lodgers, St Peters District, Tank? Row, This was near Craggs Row where James Lee then 44 years old was living as a lodger in the Grime household)

You are correct.
Thomas Lee's mother was Margaret Twiceaday it looks like he was born illegitimate and later took his fathers surname of Lee
Birth: Thomas Twiceaday Thomas Twiceaday Year of Registration: 1863 Quarter of Registration: Jul-Aug-Sep District: Preston Volume: 8e Page: 425
