Help with surname on 1841 census
« on: Wednesday 05 August 09 10:34 UTC (UK) »
Hi,
Can anyone help with the surname on 1841 census of Steeple Morden. HO107/63/22
Living with William Wiggs are two people from Ireland but I am uncertain about their surname, it looks like Damero or Danero. Any help much appreciated.

do you mean Wm Wragg - Folio: 10; Page: 15 on that PIECE and Book you quote.

everybody with his household is 'Born In County' (a Y is used as the answer to the 'Born in County' question.

the column referring to Scot/Irish/Foreign Births has been used as some sort of tally - hence the 'X's


Added: Not sure if I have the right entry, cant see those names  Huh

Hi,
No, they were living in Steeple Morden. I took the folio number from the side of the page. 
I had to search Steeple morden to find them in the first place as they haven't been transcribed on Ancestry as Wiggs anyway. They were living in Odysey Way.

Hi,
Sorry I can't seem to post the page on here.
If you have Ancestry, on 1841 for Cambridgeshire, pick Steeple Morden and its the third page in, on right hand side under Wm Wiggs.
Thanks.

possibly, but I was attracted by the formation of the 'a' and 'r' as in Catherine ...... and the 'i' isnt dotted like others on the page.
