Could someone please find William Blake (born 1809) and his wife Penelope (born around 1830) and children on 1861 and 1871 census. They should be living at Chalfont St. Peter or Chalfont St. Giles. They may possibly be residing at The Pheasant public house in Chalfont St. Giles. Thanks.

Thanks both of you. Both are the William I was looking for. There are some extraordinary names there, which is in keeping with other siblings. The Riginal was known as Zenor on 1881 census!
