Just been into Whitchurch Library to read an M.I. - I have from Hertfordshire. While there I inquired what census forms they had and were told 1841 and 1901 for Whitchurch and surrounding area - if you need any lookups for your tree just let me know - I think I am the first one in mine to live in Shropshire - so they are not of much help to me !!

Hi Gill 1841 Whitchurch census Good news/Bad news !! Found some Days in Whitchurch - but not your family - however list them as they might be related: Ellan Day 30 family servant in High St to Joseph Allwool draper + 3 others all drapers John Day 69 Shoe M John Day 43 " " Thomas Day 25 " " Martha Day 25 Martha Day 5 Sarah Day 3 Ellen Day 6 months All living at Yardington St, Whitchurch. John Day 20 Ag Lab Jane Day 30 Eliza Day 2 Living at Yardington St - together with the Barlow family - 6 doors away from previous family. On walking back from the library I had a quick look in the cemetery and found one which be interesting: En?or (could be Ebenezer) Day - died 1880 - aged 74. Sorry I couldn't find your Days - looking at the other information I find it difficult to believe they are not there - having children all born in Whitchurch in 1838,1841 and 1843 - they must surely be there in 1841!! The census covers - Adderley, Prees, Wem and Whitchuch - looked in them all - was difficult at times as the "ditto" is put as "do" - which looks like your "day" - but don't think I missed any!!!!
Anyway - if you find anything else out let me know.
