1881 Census - Bucks
« on: Monday 07 March 05 11:23 UTC (UK) »
Can anyone help me.  I've just spent 2 hours looking for this family on the 1881 Census and can't find them.  It's the parents, Sarah and Charles, I am tying to trace. This is them in 1871:

Sub-registration district:    Waddesdon 
ED, institution, or vessel:    1 
Folio:    9 
Page:    11
Household schedule number:    59

Charles Hedges 34  A Abbotts, Buckinghamshire,  Head 
Eliza Hedges 7  A Abbotts, Buckinghamshire, Daughter
Jane Hedges 11  A Abbotts, Buckinghamshire,  Daughter 
John Hedges 3  A Abbotts, Buckinghamshire,  Son 
Sarah Hedges 34  Wilstone, Hertfordshire,  Wife 
Thomas Hedges 10  A Abbotts, Buckinghamshire,  Son

Many thanks

Thanks Willow.

I think you have most of them covered there.  And I think the death entry would well be 'My Sarah'.  So that's given me a lead to follow.

I wonder where Charles went.

Many thanks for your help.

Your welcome

I am guessing there is a chance Charles may be dead as well as I would have at least expected that John would have still been living with him. It could be that the part of the index with his death has not been transcribed yet

There is a good chance that Jane was married by that time which is why I couldnt find her

good luck
