Census look up Joshua Elliott
« on: Tuesday 09 June 09 16:13 UTC (UK) »
Hi,
I was just wondering if someone could do a look up on the 1841/1851 census' for me please?
The reason I ask is I have just noticed that there is a possibility that my ancestor, Leonard Elliott's brother may have been a trustee for entrepeneur, George Africanus.
I found his will online (actually searching for Leonard's Grandfather who was called Joshua) and the search popped up with the will.
It says Joshua Elliott, a framework knitter, was one of his trustees.

Leonard's brother Joshua was born in 1777 and Leonard himself was a successfull framework knitter, but I just wanted to check there weren't any other Joshua's out there! The will was made in 1833. I can't find any other Joshua's of a suitable working age around 1833 other than mine. I did find one born 1803, but it seems he died shortly after (again it would be great if this could be clarified) which is why I was hoping someone could do a look up for me either on the census' mentioned please?
Thanks.

Thanks for that. I did find another Joshua Elliott born 1771 which has put a spanner in the works! Are there any other Joshua's on the 1841 census?

I have found that one Joshua married Amy Smith in 1806, which is the one in Isobelruss's posting, but there is also a marriage to Elizabeth Haines in 1800,
and an Ann Broadhurst in 1802. Did the other Joshua die before 1841?

My Joshua's parents were James and Susannah. The other Joshua's were William and Mary, if this helps.

Thanks.
