1861 census Mitcheldean? - Shepherd
« on: Wednesday 25 August 04 08:49 BST (UK) »

Looking for John Shepherd born 1843 at Ebbesborne Wake, Wiltshire.

John married at Abbenhall, Gloucestershire in 1863.

His wife Sophia Bullock lived in Mitcheldean so I believe John will be in that area in 1861.

Sophia Bullock, b 1847, should be in Mitcheldean, possibly with her mother Ann b circa 1819.

Any help much appreciated.

          I now have this information -  Post is Completed

Hi

Not found the Shepherd connection, however, on the 1851 in Gloucestershire, Mitcheldean is

BULLOCK Ann Widow/er 42 Lodging House Keeper Taynton
Mary 19 Dressmaker Taynton
George 9  Scholar Mitchel Dean
Sophia 3 Mitchel Dean

Not sure if this is your Sophia as she would only be 15 at the time of the marriage.  However I did not see any other sophia bullocks in this village.

Hope it helps,

Sue

Hi Sue Grin
my apologies for not answering sooner - somehow I have missed a few posts.

Yes, that is my Sophia. I never could find a marriage for her as I was looking in the wrong years! I always thought my great grandfather Sydney was her eldest child because she was 20 years old when he was born.

When Munchies found them on the 1871 census ( the only census they are on! ) I saw she had another son aged 7 and was just 24.  I then found her marriage in 1863.

I am puzzled that a whole family could vanish without trace except for one son who turns up 20 years later at the other end of the country.

I am waiting for John Shepherd's birth cert. to find out his mother's name. The marriage cert. gives his father as Elias Shepherd.

I am stumped at the minute but you never know.....

Thanks, Sue Grin
