Look up 1851 census - Henry Ambrose b. 1875 approx
« on: Sunday 28 June 09 06:47 UTC (UK) »

Hi,

Could anyone help me with 1851 census for Henry Ambrose b. Liverpool and his wife Ellen Highton b. 1783.

I have 1841 census showing as follows:
Bradford Street, Manchester
Henry Ambrose 66 - Shopkeeper
Ellen 58
John 17
Elizabeth 25  - All born in same County

In the process I am trying to find Henry and Ellen's deaths.   I am considering a death for Henry in 1842 at Manchester

MaryA,

What you are showing me now, is Henry's son John Ambrose who married Sarah Ellison.

I am looking for Henry & Ellen Ambrose

As neither Henry nor Ellen appeared clearly in the index, what I was showing you was who I believed to be the son of the family - it often tends to be worth checking out the children in case they have the parents living with them.  This eliminates one avenue of research that I wasn't aware whether you had already gone down, you hadn't told us this. 

In this case sorry I couldn't magic up Henry and Ellen.

MaryA,


Yes, I did have that census information for 1851 in regard to Henry & Ellen's son, I see what you mean though, they often were living with family members, particularly after the death of one of the partners.

Thank you for your efforts anyway MaryA, really appreciated

regards
