Wombridge 1831 census lookup - TURNER
« on: Friday 26 August 05 02:56 BST (UK) »
 SmileyHello - does anyone have a copy of the 1831 census for Wombridge that could do a lookup for me?  I would like to know if the following family are there?

This is their details in 1841:
Wombridge - Oakengates 753 F20/31

James Turner 41 Blacksmith
Jane Turner 35

John Turner 14 Blacksmith (1827)
Sarah Turner 10 (1831)

I would also be interested to know if there are any TURNERS there that may be related to James.

Thanks for any help.

Fiona.

Hi Fiona

The 1841 census was the first of any use to family historians.

I believe that the earlier census records were largely destroyed and only related to employment and general statistics. Names were not supposed to be taken, although I know of one instance in Shropshire (Bishops Castle area) where in 1831 family names were recorded.

That’s the situation as I understand it - sorry.
