1841/1851 Census - William Hicks
« on: Tuesday 09 August 05 15:17 BST (UK) »

I am trying to find where a William Hicks and his wife Anne were born. I have been unable to find there marriage or any census records. Their son Samuel Hicks was born August 1836 in Farringdon and baptised at Marlborough Ind Chapel NC Farringdon Berks. On Samuel's marriage certificate his fathers occupation was a farmer.
Could someone check the 1841 or 1851 census for me to see if they could be found.
Thanks for your help

Hi Linda

Here is Samuel in 1851 Fo 300 Southampton Street - Farringdon

HICKS
Ann aged 46 Mar Wife born Yattendon Berks
Samuel S aged 14
Rachel Dau aged 12
Mary A Dau aged 9
William aged 5

all kids born Farringdon

Unfortunatly William was not there though Ann makes it plain that she is a wife not a widow - so he was just away from home at that time

I tried to find them in the 1841 - but its not indexed and some of the pages at the begining are impossible to read so I am afraid I couldn't find them  Sad

However from the info on the 1851 I am fairly sure that this is William & Ann and Younger son William in 1861 - Great Faringdon  Berkshire   

William Hicks abt 1798  Faringdon, Berkshire, England Head  - Cattle Drover
  Ann Hicks abt 1805  Frilsom, Berkshire, England Wife   
William Hicks abt 1846  Faringdon, Berkshire, England Son  - grocer
Elizabeth Blisset abt 1781  Frilsom, Berkshire, England Boarder 

If you don't know Berkshire, Frilsham is next door to Yattendon where Ann says she was born in the 1851 census index - it is possible that Elizabeth may be Anns mother

I think this must be Ann in 1871 in Wokingham  Berkshire   

Frank Woodman abt 1844  Devizes, Wiltshire, England Head 
Rachel Woodman abt 1839  Faringdon, Berkshire, England Wife
Ann Hicks abt 1802  Firhsham, Berkshire, England Mother-in-law 
Walter Rogers abt 1852  Hampshire, England Boarder 
Arthur Walker abt 1856  Stockwell Boarder 
Walter Walker abt 1857  Stockwell Boarder   

She says she is now a widow so William must have died in the meantime

Hope it helps

I still can't find a marriage for William & Ann - but there are several parishes particularly in the southern part of the county that are not covered by the IGI and I don't have transcripts for.  There is a Berkshire marriage index at the Record Office, which one of the other posters 'Newbie' does look-ups for people when she visits - perhaps you could ask her for this one  Smiley

two other bits - I am fairly sure that William Hicks would be the one baptised 10th March 1799 Farringdon s/o John & Hannah Hicks - I do have some transcripts for Farringdon if you want anything further

also there was an Ann Blisset baptised 19th Febuary 1804 at Yattendon d/o Richard & Elizabeth

Hope you find it helpful

Thanks very much Debbie.

It means I can start again with the Hicks family.

Just one more question is William's baptism at Marlborough Ind Chapel the same as his sons Samuel or is this a church in Farringdon.

Thanks again for all your help.

Hi Linda

The baptism was at the main Church of Egland church - All Saints in Farringdon.  I have looked for John and Hana's marriage in the registers but can't find it  Huh

all the best
