1851 Census Ford family
« on: Tuesday 22 April 08 22:37 BST (UK) »

Could someone please look up for me the family of Humphrey and Elizabeth Ford in the 1851 census. Both Humphrey and Elizabeth were born in Yeaveley and would be about 70. I know Humphrey was alive in 1861 but I don't know when Elizabeth died. The family were probably in the St Alkmund district of Derby and Humphrey was a linen or cotton weaver.

Thank you
Eric

Thanks for the reply. I might be able to find Elizabeth's death date now. There were too many Elizabeth Fords dying in Derbyshire in the 20 year gap between 41 & 61!!!!
Don't know an Ealeston or Edleston. In 1861 he gives his place of birth as Yeavel(e)y which is in the parish of Shirley and most of his children were baptised there.

Thanks again
Eric

Hi,
Perhaps it is me not being able to read the Census, looked in Gazzatteer there is a
Edlaston in Derbyshire 2 1/2 miles south of Ashbourne.

Hi
Thanks for the reply. There are several villages in Derbyshire with similar names, and in the same small area. All very confusing!!

There is also an Ednaston which is 5 miles south of Ashbourne!!!!!and the route Yeavely--> Shirley--> Ednaston is less than 4 miles.

regards
Eric
