If you would like to let me have your email address I will send you print-outs of 1861 and 1871 census returns for Richard Smith. You can reach me on susan@prosserfamilytree.co.uk
Thanks received the 1861 and 71 census entries you sent through. Unfortunately I don't think this is the Richard Smith I'm looking for.
My apologies - I should have explained a bit more for you.
In 1881 my Richard Smith was a coal miner living in Eckington, aged 47, born Eckington, and had a wife Ann (born abt 1840) and eldest child was Henry (born abt 1865), so I presume he married Ann before 1865.
Regards

update - I've now received 1861 and 1871 census details from prossersue_1

Do not have access to 1851 - but have found a john battersby for 1861 - and, based on the scant info you gave me, I believe him to be the correct one. Let me have your email address andI will send it to you. You can contact me on susan@prosserfamilytree.co.uk
