Hi,

Looking or any info concerning the family BUSBY from Old Weston, Hunts in the 1841/1851 census, any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers

Hi Colin

1841
Old Weston
HO107/451-12 Folio 3B

William Busby 14 Male servant born in Hunts
in household of James King 45 farmer + family + 3 other servants

Christian names would have been useful as it helps identify people where as often, particularly in 1841, the census page is faint and barely legible. The next entry may be Busby but could equally be Bapley/Barley. Hopefully you know the names of the Busbys. It was the next household following the William Busby entry, but is unlikely to be William's father given the presence of another William.

Charles Busby 35 ag lab
Rebecca Busby 10
William Busby 7
All born in Hunts

Folio 5B
Charles Busby 25 ag lab
Elizabeth Busby 25
William Busby 4
All born in Hunts

Folio 6A
John Barley/Busby 25 male servant (probably Barley)
in household of William Cheney farmer
next house
Charlate Busby 60 pauper
Mary Chapman 20
William Chapman 2 mths
All b in Hunts

Folio 6B
William Busby 35 ag lab
Keziah Busby 35
Sussan 13
James Busby 11
John Busby 9
Mary Busby 7
All b in Hunts

Folio 7A
John Busby 45 ag lab
Ann Busby 45
Same house but separate family unit
John Busby 20 ag lab
Caraline Busby 20
Same house but separate family unit
William Busby 20 ag lab
Ann Busby 4
All b in Hunts
I suspect that John and William may have been sons of John and Ann, and Caraline was John junior's wife

Folio 7B
William Busby 55 ag lab (probably Busby but not 100% sure)
Elizabeth Busby 55
William Busby 20
All b in Hunts

Folio 8A
Edward Busby 15 male servant b in Hunts
in household of John Smith 45 farmer

Hope you can sort the wheat from the chaff. The surfeit of Williams doesn't help!

1851 hasn't been released on CDRom, so can't help there I'm afraid. Someone may have the Hunts FHS microfiche though.

Have you got them in 1861?

Regards

David
